Cristiano Ronaldo celebrated reaching the phenomenal milestone of 750 career goals last night by moving swiftly on to his next target.

The Juventus striker grabbed the landmark goal during his side’s 3-0 victory over Dynamo Kiev on Wednesday night.

Having achieved his latest feat, Ronaldo took to his Instagram to post a message of thanks to those that have helped him along the way.

And in doing so, the 35-year-old revealed he had no thoughts on ending his relentless pursuit of goals any time soon, insisting that the 800-mark was now firmly in his sights.

“750 goals, 750 happy moments, 750 smiles in the faces of our supporters,” he wrote after the match on Wednesday.

“Thank you to all the players and coaches that helped me to reach this amazing number, thank you to all my loyal opponents that made me work harder and harder every day.

“But above all, thanks to my wonderful family, always present in my best and worst moments. Next stop: 800 goals! Let’s go!” he said.

The strike against the Ukrainian side was his 75th for the Italian champions, with the majority of his strikes coming for Real Madrid.

The Portuguese star scored an incredible 450 times for the Spanish giants, while having also netted 118 times for Manchester United, and five times for Sporting Lisbon.

He also has 102 goals on the international stage for Portugal.

He has hit the landmark before his rival, Lionel Messi, who is only on 712 goals at the moment for club and country.
