The Portuguese star striker has assessed his chances of playing in the 2026 World Cup.
Cristiano Ronaldo is not thinking about his participation in the 2026 World Cup. According to the Portuguese star, he is no longer making long-term plans, but is enjoying the present.
Now the 38-year-old Saudi striker Al Nasra thinking only of the European Championship next year. Also, the Portuguese did not say until what age he plans to play for the national team.
“In the last two years, I started to think differently. Something happened that I thought I had to live for today. I couldn’t think about the long-term. Whatever happens, something happens – and everything will change. “
It’s so good to enjoy the moment. The goal is to go to the European Championship and have a good time. Everything else, we’ll see. Life is dynamic, no one knows what will happen. You have to enjoy the moment.
Now the national team is not better or worse, it is a new stage. When changes occur, you work in a new way, without putting aside the work done in previous years.
Since 2003, we have experienced great moments, reaching the final stages of the World and European Championships, the League of Nations – these are normal stages that teams go through. In my opinion, this period is very good.
I’m happy – everything went well, I scored. I want to continue, I feel like a good player, useful. I am proud to have reached 20 with the national team because it shows the longevity of football. It was difficult to achieve, but I showed that it is possible,” Ronaldo was quoted as saying by the Record.
We remind you, earlier Cristiano Ronaldo spoke about his rivalry with Lionel Messi.
