Cristiano Ronaldo has indicated that the upcoming 2026-27 football season may be his last at the top level of the sport. The Portuguese icon, 41, made the revelation in a recent interview ahead of his wedding with wife Georgina Rodriguez. Ronaldo, who is chasing the milestone of scoring 1,000 professional goals, is entering the 24th season of his senior career. Currently, he has 976 goals. Ronaldo presently plays for Saudi Pro League club Al-Nassr, and recently competed for his nation at the FIFA World Cup 2026.
“This is probably my last year of football, and I want to leave a spectacular legacy,” said Ronaldo, in an interview with Vogue.
“I have my future all mapped out. I have so many things to keep me busy that to tell you just one thing is hard. Because football could leave a big hole, you have to fill your time in various ways, not just one,” he further stated.
“And also have more fun, travel more, watch and play padel, which I really like, and continue to enjoy what I’ve earned-what we’ve earned. Because after all it’s been 25 years with a lot of sacrifice,” he added.
