“I Could See Ronaldo Wanting to Manage Portugal in the Future” – Meulensteen Says
Former Manchester United assistant coach Rene Meulensteen recently shared his thoughts on the future of Cristiano Ronaldo
He suggested that the legendary footballer could take on the role of managing the Portugal national team once he steps away from playing.
Ronaldo, who is nearing the incredible milestone of 1,000 career goals, remains a dominant figure in football, especially as the only male player to surpass 900 career goals.
At 39 years old, however, some football fans believe that the time is coming for him to retire from the game, even though his passion and talent are still undeniable.
Meulensteen, who worked closely with Ronaldo during his time at Manchester United, believes that coaching could be an ideal next step for the forward.
In an interview with Mega Dice and GOAL, Meulensteen reflected on his experiences with Ronaldo as a young player.
“I only knew Cristiano when he was coming into the senior team as a young, upcoming, growing player who made a massive impact,” Meulensteen recalled.
“Whether he has the ambition to become a manager, I don’t know. Maybe he does. Would he like to manage Portugal in the future?
I would probably say yes because he’s so passionate about representing his country.
I could definitely see him wanting that.”
Ronaldo’s love for Portugal has been constant throughout his career, from his early days as a promising talent to becoming one of the best players the world has ever seen.
His commitment to his national team was shown when he led them to victory in the 2016 UEFA European Championship and the 2019 UEFA Nations League.
Liverpool have released a list of players who are confirmed to leave the club this summer.
The list includes star players Mohamed Salah, Andy Robertson, and Ibrahima Konaté. While some players are leaving, others have been offered new contracts.
The players who have been offered fresh terms include Kyle Kelly, Afolami Onanuga, Oliver O’Connor, Lucas Pitt, Ben Trueman, Matthew Wright, Prince Cisse, and Keyrol Figueroa.
Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has urged Ademola Lookman to consider a move to Galatasaray.
It can be noted that Lookman recently completed a transfer to Atlético Madrid, and since then, many European clubs have shown interest in the player.
Osimhen then shared an encouraging message to the player, stating that he would be welcome at Galatasaray.
“We are waiting for you at Galatasaray. Come and be a part of this family.”
French footballer Kylian Mbappé has spoken on which player between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo will score more goals at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
It can be noted that the FIFA World Cup will begin on Thursday and will be co-hosted by the USA, Mexico, and Canada.
The player picked Lionel Messi to score more goals than Ronaldo during the tournament.
