Cristiano Ronaldo is considering the possibility of ending his football career after his existing contract with Al Nassr in the Saudi Pro League concludes in 2025.
The 38-year-old forward spoke after contributing to Al Nassr’s 2-1 victory over Damac in their most recent Saudi Pro League match, which took place on Saturday, October 21.
According to Sportskeeda, Ronaldo suggested he might contemplate retiring from the sport that brought him fame when he thoroughly assessed his physical condition after his current contract.
“I will continue to play this season and next. Then I will look at my body to see if I can continue or not. The game? It was difficult, especially as it came after the national team games and subsequent trips.”
“Cristiano Ronaldo, who has had spells with Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus, embarked on his professional career over 18 years ago when he made his debut with the Portuguese club Sporting CP in 2002.
In a recent report from MARCA, Cristiano Ronaldo emerged as the hero for Al-Nassr as he executed a spectacular free-kick to help his team recover from a one-goal deficit and secure three crucial points against Damac on Saturday, October 21.
The five-time Ballon d’Or recipient lived up to the enthusiastic home fans’ elaborate tifo display and stole the spotlight by netting the equalizing goal with an exceptional direct free-kick.
The Damac goalkeeper was helpless to prevent Ronaldo’s free-kick from finding the top corner of the visitors’ goal, resulting in a 2-1 score and securing his team’s 12th consecutive unbeaten match.
