Cristiano Ronaldo Hints at Limited Years Left After FPF Honor as Portugal Preps for Qualifiers

His remarks come after a lucrative Al‑Nassr extension through 2027 that pushed Bloomberg’s estimate of his net worth past $1 billion and reportedly grants him a rare 15% stake in the club.

Overview

  • Ronaldo received the inaugural Globo Prestigio at the Portugal Football Globes and called the tribute special without seeing it as a career capstone.
  • He said he expects to play a few more years, not many, and emphasized short‑term goals with Portugal rather than long‑range plans.
  • With the national team, he targeted wins in World Cup 2026 qualifiers against Ireland on October 11 and Hungary on October 14 in Lisbon, as Portugal leads Group F.
  • He is under contract with Al‑Nassr through 2027 on an unusually large package reported to include around $200 million per year tax‑free, a signing and performance bonuses, and roughly a 15% club participation.
  • Bloomberg’s Billionaires Index now pegs his net worth at about $1.4 billion, and profiles highlight the disciplined training, diet and rest routine he credits for sustaining form at 40.
