Cristiano Ronaldo will make his final Portugal appearance in 2027

Cristiano Ronaldo will represent Portugal for the final time in 2027.

At his best, the superstar was nothing short of sensational, regularly delivering spectacular moments for his country.

Alas, he’s no longer the player who helped his side win the European Championship in 2016.

On Thursday, Ronaldo was an unused substitute during Portugal’s match against Norway. And it left him furious.

Consequently, he walked out on his teammates, leaving the manager without the option of using him during the return fixture yesterday.

WOW: How much has Cristiano Ronaldo spent on his remarkable supercar collection?

However, despite this, Portuguese football journalist Miguel Pereira, expects him to make a return for one major reason.

He told talkSPORT: “The thing is that 21 goals that he needs to score [to reach his 1000th].

“He really wanted to score the last one with Portugal the same way that Pelé mounted a show when he scored his 1000th goal, and I think he was aiming to score that goal at the end of the season in a match with Portugal.

“He was expecting to score the 15-20 goals during the season easily with Al Nassr, but he really wanted to throw up a party that celebrates himself, his ego, his history with the national side, and I do still think that is going to happen because, despite everything that we have seen and probably if we had this conversation on the day after the event, it will be more of a difficult situation to assess.

“But right now I really do think there are bridges being built between Cristiano’s camp, Jorge Jesus’ camp, the Portuguese federation is very much interested in having Cristiano because of all the publicity it gets, and I do think that Cristiano will be back for a last dance with the Portuguese side later next year.”
