Former Portugal and Real Madrid player Luis Figo has commented on Cristiano Ronaldo's expected call-up to the national team to participate in the 2026 World Cup.
"He could be a key player (at the World Cup). I think we have to wait and see. But Cristiano is an example for the whole world in terms of accessibility, professionalism, talent."
"And he will always score goals, I think even at 40, even at 42, he will always score goals. Now they are decisive, I don't know, we have to wait and see. For us, the Portuguese, let's hope they will always be decisive," GOAL quotes Luis Figo as saying.
Cristiano Ronaldo is Portugal's all-time leading scorer with 136 goals. The 40-year-old striker currently plays for Saudi Arabian club Al-Nasr, where Ronaldo has made 36 appearances in all competitions this season, scoring 32 goals.
