Ronaldo Backs Out of CBF Presidential Race After Struggling to Gain Support
Ronaldo Nazario has pulled out of the race to become the next president of the Brazilian Football Federation (CBF).
The former Real Madrid striker had previously shown interest in challenging the current president, Ednaldo Rodrigues. However, the 48-year-old announced that he’s stepping back after facing resistance from key figures in Brazilian football.
Ronaldo explained that after speaking with the 27 regional affiliates, 23 of them made it clear they were satisfied with the current leadership and were backing Rodrigues for reelection. He said he wasn’t given the chance to present his ideas or discuss his plans for the future of Brazilian football.
“If those in power believe Brazilian football is in good hands, then my opinion doesn’t matter,” Ronaldo said. “I couldn’t even get a seat at the table to share my vision because there was no willingness to listen.”
Head coach of Atletico Madrid, Diego Simeone, speaks on team defense and called out a player who needs to toughen up. He shared that Ademola Lookman needs to work on defense.
“Ademola Lookman arrived with great enthusiasm and desire to keep growing. We need him to add defensive work to what he already gives us offensively, because he has that ability,” he then added.
“He’s shown it with the Nigeria national team, and we need him in that role.”
Former football legend Paul Merson states that Mohammad Salah is the greatest winger of all time.
While also praising Bukayo Saka for being the winger in form right now.
When asked in a recent interview, he stated “For the best right now, it’s probably [Bukayo] Saka for his all-around game. I will go Salah, because the numbers he’s put up are ridiculous.”
Former player Paul Merson shares his predictions on this weekend’s Premier League games.
He shared Leeds United vs Manchester City – Prediction: Leeds 1-1 Manchester City.
Manchester United vs Crystal Palace – Prediction: Manchester United 3-0 Crystal Palace.
Arsenal vs Chelsea – Prediction: Arsenal 1-0 Chelsea.
