Following speculation about his future and possible retirement, Cristiano Ronaldo recently discussed the club where he might end his career.
At 39 years old, Cristiano Ronaldo remains active in football, sparking ongoing questions about where he might choose to retire. In a recent interview, the former Ballon d’Or winner addressed these questions and hinted at his potential retirement plans.
Ronaldo suggested that he might retire at Al-Nassr, expressing satisfaction with the club and his life in Saudi Arabia. In an interview with Now, he stated,
“I don’t know if I will retire soon, in two or three years… but probably I will retire at Al Nassr. I’m very happy at this club. I feel good in this country too; I love playing in Saudi Arabia.”
Reflecting on his life after football, Ronaldo added, “I want to continue. It’s difficult to think that I will be a manager one day. In my mind, I’m not considering being the head coach of any football team. So… I don’t even think about it. I see my future doing things outside of football.”
