The Portugal great, with 953 goals for club and country, also revealed he will officially retire from football in “one or two years”.
Ronaldo, 40, is set to compete in a record-shattering sixth consecutive World Cup in theUnited States, Canada and Mexico next summer.
Portugal sit top of Group F and will secure qualification with a victory over the Republic of Ireland on Thursday.
During a video call at the Riyadh World Tourism summit, the football legend was asked whether the 2026 World Cup would be his final swansong.
Ronaldo– who recently signed theworld’s most lucrative contract with Al-Nassruntil 2027 – said: “Of course. I’ll be 41 by then
“In football, I try to enjoy the moment. I’m 40 years old, so I try to make the most of every moment.
“I want to continue because I feel good, my body is in good shape, and my performances on the field speak for themselves.”
Ronaldo told Piers Morgan Uncensored in an interview last weekthat he will hang up his boots “soon” and will “cry” when does.
Asked to elaborate on that, he said: “Let’s be honest, when I mean soon, it’s probably one or two years I’ll still be at the game.
