Portuguese football legend Cristiano Ronaldo has opened up about his retirement plans, stating that his decision will depend on whether he feels motivated to continue playing.

The 39-year-old forward made this statement after delivering a stellar performance in Portugal’s 5-1 victory over Poland in the UEFA Nations League.

Ronaldo scored twice during the match, bringing his incredible career goal tally to 910.

The game also marked Ronaldo’s 215th international appearance, reinforcing his status as the most capped player in men’s football history.

His two goals added to his record-breaking 135 international goals, solidifying his position as the top scorer in international football.

Speaking about his future, Ronaldo said, “I just want to enjoy my football for as long as I can.

Retirement? It could be in a year or two, I’m not sure.

I’ll be 40 soon, and I want to make the most of the time I have left on the pitch.

The day I wake up and no longer feel motivated, that’s the day I’ll stop.”

Ronaldo, popular for his extraordinary work ethic and relentless drive, the Al-Nassr forward has set a standard that few can match.

His ability to maintain peak performance even at the age of 39 has been nothing short of remarkable.

Over his illustrious career, Ronaldo has won numerous titles and awards, including five Ballon d’Ors and multiple Champions League trophies.

He has played for some of the biggest clubs in the world, including Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus.

Currently, he is showcasing his skills in the Saudi Pro League, where he continues to dominate the field.
