Cristiano Ronaldo Predicted to be Able to Play until He Is 40 Years Old

By db-admin

DBasia.news – Cristiano Ronaldo has not shown a decline in form at the age of three heads. The Juventus star is believed to be able to perform at his prime until he is 40 years old.

Ronaldo on Friday (5/2), has his 36th birthday. Many of his colleagues hang up their shoes before they are even past their present age.

But Ronaldo is one exception. The Juventus player showed no signs of slowing down in form.

Mauri, who served as the Real Madrid fitness coach under Carlo Ancelotti’s era, knows Ronaldo’s body well. Moreover, the player carries out the recommended method regarding the rest period.

“When I arrived in Italy, I said he (Ronaldo) was a player out of the ordinary. He followed the method we proposed in Madrid where rest was a fundamental part of training,” Mauri told Tuttosport.

“Rest doesn’t just mean sleep. It is not passive, but is made of specific exercises aimed at achieving muscular, mental and articular health.”

Ronaldo’s strength and speed have not changed much since moving from Real Madrid to Juventus in the summer of 2018. He is able to carry out his responsibilities as the spearhead of the Bianconeri well.

Throughout the 2020-2021 season, Ronaldo has scored 22 goals in all competitions. Remarkably, he recorded this score from only 23 matches.

Mauri also has a prediction regarding Ronaldo’s retirement. He is sure that the Portuguese megastar can still look excellent even though he will have four heads.

“I have worked with many football players in my forties, from (Paolo) Maldini to (Alessandro) Costacurta. When at PSG, I was sure (Zlatan) Ibrahimovic would play until he was 40 years old,” he added.

“They are all athletes with great flexibility regardless of their strength. Cristiano Ronaldo is part of this category and can play until he is 40 years old.”
