Portugal's national team head coach, Roberto Martinez, shared his thoughts on the possibility of Cristiano Ronaldo scoring 1,000 goals during his career. According to the coach, the star forward is currently experiencing one of the most consistent and meaningful phases of his career.
Martinez stated that Ronaldo is not focused on future large numbers or records but rather prefers to live in the moment. When discussing his goals, Ronaldo avoids long-term calculations or setting specific milestones, such as scoring 1,000 goals or playing a certain number of games. For him, the main priority is to benefit his team in each match and enjoy the game.
“Cristiano is in a very good place right now. He feels free, is active on the field, experienced, and still capable of competing at the highest level. The number of goals will naturally depend on when he decides to retire from football. However, I don’t think scoring 1,000 goals is his main objective,” Roberto Martinez said.
According to the coach, this pressure-free approach is precisely what helps Ronaldo maintain his high-level sports form over many years. Instead of chasing records, he has chosen to relish every match.
For context, Cristiano Ronaldo has so far scored a total of 955 goals for both clubs and his national team. Therefore, debates within the football community over whether he will reach the historic milestone of 1,000 goals are expected to continue for some time.
