Ronaldo Set to Break the Champions League Record – And He’s Still Got It!
UEFA has announced that Cristiano Ronaldo will receive an award for scoring the most goals in Champions League history, and it’s about time! The Portuguese superstar has been dominating the competition for years, and his record-breaking 140 goals in 183 games is a testament to his incredible skill and dedication.
Ronaldo’s journey in the Champions League began back in 2002, when he made his debut for Sporting CP. He’s since played for Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus, and has won the trophy five times. But it’s not just his trophy cabinet that’s impressive – his goal-scoring record is truly remarkable.
As UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin said, "Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the brightest stars in the UEFA Champions League constellation. His extraordinary goal-scoring achievements in the competition seem destined to stand the test of time, posing a remarkable challenge for future generations to surpass." And we couldn’t agree more.
Ronaldo’s first Champions League goal came in 2007, and since then, he’s been a force to be reckoned with. He’s also the record holder for most final goals, with four goals in the Champions League era. Fellow Madrid legends Alfredo Di Stéfano and Ferenc Puskás both scored seven goals in European Cup finals, but Ronaldo’s record is still unmatched.
The 36-team league phase draw ceremony will take place in Monaco on Thursday, where Ronaldo will be honored for his achievement. And let’s be real, he’s still got it. At 37, he’s showing no signs of slowing down, and we can’t wait to see what he does next.
