Cristiano Ronaldo expresses uncertainty about achieving the milestone of 1,000 goals, as his contract with Al Nassr is set to end in 2025.

**No Messi, Neymar or Mbappe, but PSG Will Rise Again – Galtier**

In a candid reflection on the current state of Paris Saint-Germain, former manager Christophe Galtier has expressed his belief that the club will bounce back, despite the absence of superstars like Lionel Messi, Neymar, and Kylian Mbappe. Galtier, who led the team during a tumultuous period, remains optimistic about the future of the French giants.

Meanwhile, Cristiano Ronaldo has acknowledged the ticking clock on his illustrious career, admitting that he may not have enough time left to reach the coveted milestone of 1,000 career goals. The 39-year-old Portuguese forward, who holds the record as the all-time leading scorer in football history with an impressive tally of 908 goals, is still finding the net with regularity since his move to Al Nassr in the Saudi Pro League.

This season, Ronaldo has scored 10 goals in 15 appearances for his new club and has added three more to his international tally in just four games for Portugal. However, with his 40th birthday looming in February and his contract with Al Nassr set to expire next summer, the prospect of reaching the 1,000-goal mark appears increasingly challenging.

“I now face my life living in the moment. I can’t think long-term anymore,” Ronaldo stated. “I can no longer think about what I said publicly that I wanted to reach 1,000 goals. But it seems that everything is easy now; just last month I reached 900. It’s about living in the moment, enjoying the moment, and seeing the response that my legs will give me in the next few years.”

While the prospect of hitting the 1,000-goal milestone is enticing, Ronaldo remains philosophical about his legacy. “One thousand goals is great, but if it doesn’t come, I’m already the player in history with the most goals,” he added.

As for his international career, Ronaldo has not indicated how much longer he plans to don the national jersey. He has been included in the squad for Portugal’s upcoming UEFA Nations League fixtures against Poland and Croatia, but speculation surrounds his participation in the 2026 World Cup.

Ronaldo’s comments came after he was awarded the Quinas de Platina trophy, the highest accolade bestowed upon players by Portugal’s Football Federation (FPF). Reflecting on his journey, he said, “When I joined the national team at 18 years old, my dream was to get my first international cap. Then I reached 25, then I reached 50. That is a milestone that all players see as something important. Then I said to myself, ‘why not 100?’ Then you start to think, why not 150? 200? For me, it’s a great feeling.”

Despite his numerous accolades, Ronaldo emphasized that nothing compares to representing his country. “Even after winning so many trophies, there’s nothing better than playing for the national team. This goes by quickly. That’s why I’m disappointed with some players who don’t want to represent Portugal,” he concluded.

As the football world watches closely, both Galtier’s faith in PSG and Ronaldo’s pursuit of greatness continue to capture the imagination of fans everywhere.
