‘I still have 10 more years to play’, Cristiano Ronaldo

Real Madrid and Portugal superstar, Cristiano Ronaldo says he has no intention of retiring from football in the next 10 years.

The 31-year-old has had an enviable career both in England and Spain, and also become the leading UEFA Champions League scorer.

Ronaldo scored 118 goals in 291 appearances for former club Manchester United, and have followed that up with astonishing 367 strikes in 354 games for the Spanish giants.


The Portugal captain, who added the European Championship trophy to his silverwares earlier this year, has won four Premier League titles, one La Liga crown and three Champions League trophies.

The three-time World Footballer of the Year is hungry for more as his football shows no sign of dissipating.

At the opening of his new hotel in Lisbon, Portugal’s capital, yesterday, he announced his plans to play on for another decade.

He told reporters, “Life is not just about football.”

“Although football is my grand passion, I must start to think about the future.

“I don’t have many years left, about 10 more or less, so I must look to the future.”
