Cristiano affirmed this week in an interview on Dazn that, at 37 years old, he sees the end of his sports career near but that he still thinks he has 4 or 5 more years left. United got stuck in the Premier once more, this time tied at 0 with Watford. Cristiano might not end his losing streak. Frank Leboeuf, former French international, world champion, and is from Chelsea among others, has analyzed the moment and Cristiano’s words regarding his future. “I think there comes a time when you have to think ‘what am I going to do with my life and my career’. And maybe the time has come for Cristiano Ronaldo to have this discussion with himself and his family, what does he plan to do, if has a future in his career,” says Leboeuf.
There is a fear that such a brilliant career will not have a fitting end and, in a word, drag to lengthen it in any way. “I don’t want to see Ronaldo and feel sorry for him, because he was at the top for so many years. I don’t want him to become a normal player, he has been an exceptional footballer for so long… I would prefer that he leave his career while he is at the top instead of trying to play two or three more years without being the player we used to see,” Lebeouf added in an interview on ESPN.
