Cristiano Ronaldo has opened up about when he will retire from professional football.

With the legend expected to hang up his international boots after a showdown between Portugal and Wales next month, it now appears that he doesn’t have long left in the club game either.

Cristiano Ronaldo says this could be his final season

Cristiano Ronaldo is undeniably one of the best to have ever played the game. However, at the age of 41, his prime is now firmly in the rearview mirror.

Therefore, despite the fact that Ronaldo is making a huge amount of money at Al-Nassr, he’s coming to the realisation that his time in the sport is almost over.

In an interview with Vogue, he admitted: “This is probably my last year of football, and I want to leave a spectacular legacy.

“I have my future all mapped out. I have so many things to keep me busy that to tell you just one thing is hard.

“Because football could leave a big hole, you have to fill your time in various ways, not just one.

“And also have more fun, travel more, watch and play padel, which I really like, and continue to enjoy what I’ve earned—what we’ve earned.

“Because after all, it’s been 25 years with a lot of sacrifice.”
