Cristiano Ronaldo is active on several channels. Now the football superstar is celebrating himself for over a billion followers. “From the streets of Madeira to the biggest stages in the world,” he writes.
Football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo says he has broken the barrier of one billion followers on social media. “We have made history,” the 39-year-old Portuguese posted on Instagram, X, Facebook and Kuaishou, among others. “This is more than a number – it is proof of our shared passion, drive and love for this sport and beyond.”
A countdown has already started on YouTube – “Road to a billion”. And the counting is still going on there. As of early Friday morning (CET) there were around 1,000,167,200 followers – and the number is still rising. The five-time world footballer has by far the largest following on Instagram with 638 million followers.
“The best is yet to come”
“From the streets of Madeira to the biggest stages in the world, I have always played for my family and for you, and now we stand together with a billion,” Ronaldo continued. “You have been with me every step of the way, through all the ups and downs. This journey is our journey, and together we have shown that there are no limits to what we can achieve.”
Ronaldo recently scored his 900th goal. He is aiming for 1,000 goals. He has made 212 appearances for the Portuguese national team and dreams of 250. And in his post to one billion followers, the professional from Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia promised his fans around the world: “The best is yet to come and we will fight together, win and make history.”
