Cristiano Ronaldo great star of Portugal and Al-Nassr.

He has "stepped" on the 40th anniversary of his birth and is now heading towards 41... candles. He continues to score with great frequency and is of course chasing (he has admitted it, after all) the goal of 1000 career goals , currently having 945 .


Cristiano Ronaldo is once again in the Portugal national team's call-ups for the World Cup qualifiers, and, during the Prestige Award ceremony he received at a gala in his homeland, he emphasized: "I know you must be tired of seeing me still here at these ceremonies! But I am proud and happy. I think I still have a lot to offer to the National Team and to football"!.


He then added: that the goal of the Portuguese national team is to qualify for the World Cup and then... we'll see. And he added:


"I know I don't have many years left to play, but the little time I have, I want to make the most of it. I have a philosophy of living day by day. Without long-term plans. I enjoy every day and every training session..."
