Alan Shearer Says Ronaldo Will Decide When to Retire Not Portugal or Any Club
Newcastle legend Alan Shearer has weighed in on Cristiano Ronaldo’s future, saying the Portuguese star won’t be pushed into retirement — not by Portugal, not by anyone. With the 2026 World Cup around the corner, Shearer believes the 40-year-old remains in control of when and how he bows out of international football, even if he’s no longer at the peak of his powers.
Ronaldo’s time at Al-Nassr also appears to be winding down, with his contract expiring at the end of June. The forward recently hinted that his chapter with the Saudi club may be closed, sparking fresh rumours about his next destination. Despite all that, Ronaldo continues to be a key figure for Portugal under Roberto Martinez and shows no signs of slowing down on the international scene.
Speaking to Betfair, Shearer said, “He’s not what he used to be — that’s natural at his age — but he’s still going and still finding the net. Portugal won’t drop him. When he stops, it’ll be because he decided it’s time.” As for what’s next, the football world is watching closely, with multiple clubs reportedly interested in snapping him up if he leaves Al-Nassr this summer.
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.
