Wes Brown: Ronaldo's body 'should be given to scientists' when GOAT retires

 

Cristiano Ronaldo continues to defy age and expectations at 40 years old. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner remains a top performer for Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League and recently led Portugal to a second UEFA Nations League title. Former Manchester United teammate Wes Brown, speaking to GOAL, expressed admiration for Ronaldo’s longevity and commitment, saying his body “should be given to scientists” when he retires.

Ronaldo’s passion for the game remains undiminished. He recently signed a new two-year contract in Saudi Arabia, pushing forward with his goal of reaching 1,000 career goals before retiring. Brown believes Ronaldo’s dedication, fitness, and professionalism are unmatched, calling him a “machine” who continues to inspire younger players.

Despite his long list of achievements, Ronaldo has not ruled out further challenges, with speculation about a possible return to Sporting in the future. His ongoing rivalry with Lionel Messi, who also continues to play at a high level in MLS, remains a key talking point in world football.

Wes Brown highlighted Ronaldo’s enduring motivation and love for football, noting that the Portuguese star would have retired if he no longer enjoyed the sport. Instead, Ronaldo keeps breaking records, setting new ones, and pushing his physical limits to remain competitive. Brown praised Ronaldo’s willingness to put his body through intense demands, seeing it as a positive example for aspiring footballers.

For Ronaldo, football is not just about accolades but about the joy of competing and inspiring the next generation. His relentless drive and unmatched work ethic have made him one of the sport’s greatest ambassadors.

Off the pitch, Ronaldo’s personal life is also flourishing. He is now engaged to long-time partner Georgina Rodriguez, adding a new chapter to his journey. His influence extends beyond football, inspiring fans worldwide with his discipline, mindset, and success story.

While his place among football’s immortals is already secured, Ronaldo is determined to add more chapters to his legacy before hanging up his boots. Whether in Saudi Arabia, Europe, or elsewhere, his final seasons promise to be just as impactful as the earlier stages of his career.
