By MyKhel Team

In his 22nd year as a professional footballer, Cristiano Ronaldo remains an influential figure and prolific goal-scorer. Despite his move to Saudi Arabia, he continues to be a prominent athlete, garnering global admiration.

Ronaldo, a football icon, has achieved immense success in Europe and, now playing for Al Nassr in the Saudi Pro League, he maintains exceptional fitness and work ethic, defying the notion of aging.

While Ronaldo, at 38, acknowledges questions about his future, he confidently expresses a desire to extend his career. In an interview reported by renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano, Ronaldo hinted at the possibility of playing for another ten years.

The Portuguese superstar emphasizes that he will retire when he feels done, showcasing his unwavering commitment to the sport.

Recently awarded the 2023 Globe Soccer's Maradona Award for top goal-scorer, Ronaldo continues to shine both for his club and country. Starting his professional career with Sporting Lisbon in 2002 at the age of 17, he quickly attracted attention, leading to a move to Manchester United at 18 in 2003 for approximately £12 million.

Ronaldo's rise to prominence accelerated at Old Trafford, making him one of the world's best players. His subsequent move to Real Madrid in Spain marked the beginning of a legendary rivalry with Lionel Messi, where he set records and scored prolifically.

In 2018, Ronaldo joined Juventus before returning to Manchester United three years later. However, his second stint at United ended on a sour note, leading to his departure to Al-Nassr in 2023.

Despite changing clubs, Ronaldo's impact persists as he helps Al Nassr gain significant popularity. The five-time Ballon d'Or winner demonstrates unwavering dedication, evident in his impressive tally of 54 goals in the previous year.

Ronaldo's longevity and sustained high performance showcase his commitment to football and his determination to contribute to the sport's legacy.
