Cristiano Ronaldo best scorer ever: “Still a lot to win with Juve and Portugal”

After Pele’s direct recognition, there are no more doubts: Cristiano Ronaldo is the best scorer in the history of professional football. Following this new record, he published a long post on Instagram:

“In the last few weeks, there have been reports that I would be the best scorer in football history, having surpassed Pele’s 757 official goals. While I am grateful for that, it is time to explain to you why I had never recognized this record before. To Edson Arantes do Nascimiento goes all my unconditional and perpetual admiration, as well as the one I have for mid-twentieth century football, so much so that I consider his record at 767 goals, given the 9 goals he scored in the team of the state of Sao Paulo , as well as the one he scored when he was on the Brazilian military team. The world has changed since then, as has football, but that doesn’t mean we have to bend history to our interests. Today I reached my 770th goal in my career as a professional, and my first words go straight to Pele. There is no player in the world who has not grown up listening to the stories about his games, his goals and his achievements: I I am no exception. For this reason I am filled with joy and pride in recognizing that I have achieved the title of best scorer in the world, breaking his record: something I could never even dream of when I was a boy in Madeira. Thanks to everyone who took part with me in this exciting adventure. To my teammates, opponents and fans of every match in this world but, above all, to my family and close friends: believe me when I say that I could never have done it without you. Now I can’t wait to face the next matches and challenges, the next records and trophies! Believe me, this story is far from over. The future is tomorrow, and there is still a lot to win with both Juve and Portugal! “.
