Captain Cristiano Ronaldo started training to return to the field as soon as the Portugal team returned home early in the World Cup. The player started training at the old stadium of Real Madrid.
The player, who ended his contract with his current club Manchester United at the end of last month, can join any club following the first of next month. The latest reports are that the 37-year-old is considering other clubs as well, although the Saudi club Annasr has come forward to bring him to the team in large numbers. The player has started training at Real’s Valdebibas ground, but there is no possibility of returning to Real.
Ronaldo’s second stint in Manchester was far from satisfactory. The player who quarreled with the coach and did not get a place in the first eleven, gave a controversial interview just before the World Cup and left the team. The player revealed that he has no respect for coach ten Haag.
However, coach Santos fielded the first XI in the last matches following the player who had a great start in the World Cup. There were also reports that Cristiano thought of leaving the Portugal team and returning to his country, angry with this. Portugal defeated Switzerland 6-1 in the pre-quarters before falling to Morocco in the quarter-finals.
Real’s all-time hero, Cristiano is the team’s top scorer with 450 goals in 438 games. With Real, he has won the Champions League four times and La Liga twice. He left Manchester and came to Royal in 2009. The star who moved to Juventus in 2018 soon returned to Manchester.
