DBasia.news – There is a beginning and an end, the quote said. No matter how great a football player is, he will turn old and reaches the end of a career. This story also applied to Cristiano Ronaldo.
For years, his rivalry with Lionel Messi entertained the Europe football lovers. No matter who will be the best in the world, both made football as the most popular and beautiful sport in the world. The supporters should be realistic in seeing them slowly approaching the career end.
Messi might play longer because he is ‘still’ 30, but not for Ronaldo who is now 33. Though Juventus medical review result showed that his physical condition is like 25, but age can’t lie.
Ronaldo prepares his next successor in the future. Who is it? His own son, the 8-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo Junior. Like an idiom, like father like son, Ronaldo Junior also inspired by his father with his talent to dribble the ball, free kick, and ambitious character like his father.
“He’s very competitive. He’s like me as a child. He doesn’t like losing. He’ll become like me, I’m 100 percent sure of it. I’d like to teach him some things, but ultimately he will choose what to do,” Ronaldo told Goal.
“And he’ll always have my support. But of course, I’d like him to become a player because I think he has a passion for it too. He has a good body, he’s fast, he has skills, he can shoot, but as you know he’s going to make his decision and he’s so young, I’m not going to pressure him. But that is, of course, a dream, to see my boy a football player.”
It might be too early in examining Ronaldo Junior’s power. While waiting for his development, the fans can still watch Ronaldo’s act who just joined Juventus this summer and leaving Real Madrid.
