It has been 22 years since Cristiano Ronaldo made his professional debut, and he steps into another season with the same fitness and hunger. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner has already etched his name in the history books but still continues with that same passion and has no intention of hanging up his boots any time soon.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s Performance
The Portuguese superstar has been in fine form since he joined Al Nassr in 2022 from Manchester United. He scored 41 goals in 40 games last season; the figure seems unnatural for a 39-year-old forward. In a recent game against Al-Taawoun in the semi-final of the Super Cup, he scored a goal and assisted one to help his team reach the final.
Ronaldo looks to have overcome his goalless Euro 2024 campaign, as he has never been the one who dwells on the past. He keeps working hard, no matter what the outcome or the result. This is what makes him different from other athletes. In his social media post, he mentioned why he’s still special despite his age being close to 40. He mentioned that “sleep, strain, and recover” is his secret to producing such mastery on the football field.
