“I’m going to live until I’m 100” – Ronaldo Replies to Mr Beast Age Joke
Cristiano Ronaldo recently responded to a bold comment about his age during a conversation with popular YouTuber Jimmy Donaldson, widely known as MrBeast.
The exchange took place during a video collaboration, where the American internet sensation joked about Ronaldo’s age, implying that at nearly 40 years old, he might be approaching the end of his life.
MrBeast playfully remarked, “Almost 40! You’re about to die, what’s it like?”
Ronaldo assured his fans and critics alike that he plans to live a long life, stating, “I’m going to live until I’m 100, just to let you know.”
The Portuguese superstar also took the opportunity to address perceptions of age in football.
He explained that while many players retire in their early to mid-thirties, he views football as a career that can be extended with the right mindset and physical conditioning.
“In football, this is a long career because most of the time they retire at 33, 34, or 36,” Ronaldo said, emphasizing his longevity and commitment to the sport.
Ronaldo has consistently defied expectations throughout his illustrious career.
From his early days at Sporting CP to his historic stints at Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus, he has maintained a level of fitness and performance that many players his age can only dream of.
Now excelling at Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner continues to break records and inspire millions worldwide.
Former Super Eagles captain Austin Jay-Jay Okocha has shared his thoughts on Victor Osimhen’s next career move, saying the final decision belongs to the striker alone. Osimhen is expected to leave Napoli permanently this summer after a successful loan spell at Galatasaray, where he won the league, League Cup, and the Golden Boot.
Osimhen has already rejected offers from Saudi side Al-Hilal, making it clear he wants to continue playing in Europe. Speaking to Sport 247, Okocha stressed that Osimhen must make the choice himself.
“The decision is his to make. Whether it works out or not, he has to own it,” Okocha said. He added that no one else should dictate Osimhen’s future, saying the striker should do what is best for himself and his family.
Barcelona sporting director Deco has revealed his top picks for the 2025 Ballon d’Or, naming four players he believes could take home the prestigious award. Deco mentioned Barcelona stars Lamine Yamal and Pedri, alongside PSG duo Ousmane Dembele and Vitinha, as his favourites for the prize.
“Lamine has a real chance, just like Pedri, Dembele, and Vitinha,” Deco said in a chat with La Vanguardia, as reported by Barca Universal. He added that it’s exciting to see Barcelona players back in the conversation for one of football’s biggest honours.
The 2025 Ballon d’Or winner will be announced in September. Manchester City midfielder Rodri claimed the award last year, finishing ahead of Real Madrid’s Vinicius Jr.
AC Milan star Rafael Leao has picked Cristiano Ronaldo and Zlatan Ibrahimovic as the two greatest players he’s shared the pitch with. Leao, who plays alongside Ronaldo for Portugal, also had the chance to team up with Ibrahimovic during the Swede’s final years at AC Milan.
Speaking in an interview with fashion outlet L’Officiel, Leao said, “It’s not just one, but two — Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Cristiano Ronaldo.”
Ronaldo, now 40, is still active with Saudi club Al Nassr, though his contract is set to run out at the end of this month. Meanwhile, Ibrahimovic, 43, has retired and currently works as an advisor for AC Milan under the club’s American ownership.
