Joao Felix revealed he has thought about being the player to assist Cristiano Ronaldo's 1,000th goal, claiming "the goal will go down in soccer history".
Ronaldo scored in Al-Nassr's win over Abha earlier this month, taking his career total to 979 goals for club and country.
While the 41-year-old hinted his international career could be over by the end of the season, it also remains to be seen whether his club career goes beyond 2026-27.
Joao Felix plays alongside Ronaldo for both Al-Nassr and Portugal, and the former Chelsea forward would be honoured to assist his team-mates' milestone goal.
"I've thought about that," Joao Felix told Diario AS when asked about assisting Ronaldo's 1,000th goal.
"When he's one goal away, every time I get the ball I'll look for him to see if I can give him the pass.
"That goal will go down in soccer history, and being part of it would be a great moment."
Joao Felix impressed in his debut season with Al-Nassr, scoring 20 goals and providing 13 assists to help his team end a seven-year wait to win the Saudi Pro League title.
The 26-year-old was named the league's player of the season, and he was delighted to see Ronaldo finally get his hands on the trophy.
"It's something few people in soccer can say they've done," added Joao Felix. "I got to do it with the national team, and now at Al Nassr.
"It's an honour, honestly. We grew up watching Cristiano. He was our idol, someone we looked up to, and now I get to share these moments with him.
"Winning the league last year was especially meaningful. Being able to help Cristiano win the title he had been chasing since he arrived.
"We have to enjoy it as much as we can because we know it won't last forever. But while he's here, we'll be here too."

you are very stupid 🙄
That 1k goals cr7 will reach it but Messi will get it before cr7, if you don't believe me, just wait and see. Go and ask your co travelers in same band wagon they will tell you that cr7 was leading Messi in balloondor, golden shoe , trophies and individual award before Cristiano bottled the lead and Messi overtake him. May be you don't know one of the reasons Messi retired or stepped aside from Argentina national team is to concentrate on club football to be able to stripe cr7 of the lead towards 1k goal and Messi is determined to make you guys cry by taking the only thing left that matters to him. Just be rehearsing your crying now

Ronaldo isn't playing active football. His goals are fake. The chap is finished, that is why he ran away from big leagues so that he can accumulates more goals. Fake

The fear of cr7 ferocious fans is the beginning of safety.The coach and the officials of Portugal are been bullied by cr7 fans and any player know to be not pro cr7 will be bullied and harassed on social media by his fans. Felix is a wise and smart guy.
