I see myself doing other things outside of football: CR7
Highlighting on his current state of mind, Ronaldo said that currently he wants to help his national team with big tournaments coming ahead. “Right now, what I want most is to help the national team in its upcoming matches. We have the Nations League coming up soon and I would really like to play there," he said, as per an interview with Portuguese TV channel NOW, via Relevo.
"In my mind, at the moment, it is not about being a first team coach, or a coach of any team. I don't see my future being that way. I see myself doing other things outside of football, but only God knows what the future holds," the 39-year-old further added.
Ronaldo has been playing for Al Nassr in the Saudi Pro League since early 2023. His stint with his previous club, Manchester United ended on a sour note.
