Resolution criteria This market will resolve to YES if Cristiano Ronaldo scores his 1,000th official career goal in professional football before officially retiring. This market will resolve to NO if he officially announces his retirement from professional football (including both club and international levels) without having reached the 1,000-goal milestone. Key Definitions and Rules: Official Goals: Only senior-level goals scored for his professional club teams (e.g., Sporting CP, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus, Al Nassr) and the Portugal senior national team in official competitive fixtures or official FIFA-recognized international friendlies will count. Unofficial club friendlies, exhibition matches, and post-retirement testimonial matches do not count. Sources of Truth: Resolution will be verified using official counts published by major sporting databases and news outlets, such as Transfermarkt, ESPN, BBC Sport, or RSSSF. Retirement Definition: Retirement is defined as a formal announcement by Ronaldo or his official representatives that he is hanging up his boots and will no longer play professional football. If he remains a free agent without a club but does not formally retire, the market will remain open until he either signs with a new club, formally retires, or passes away. Background As of August 2026, Cristiano Ronaldo has scored 976 official career goals for club and country, leaving him 24 goals away from the historic 1,000-goal milestone. In an August 2026 interview with Vogue, the 41-year-old Al Nassr forward gave his strongest indication yet that the end of his playing days is near, stating that the current season will "probably be the last season of his professional career." Whether his physical longevity and goal-scoring rate will allow him to bridge the 24-goal gap before he officially retires remains one of the final storylines of his legendary career.
