“You’re Finished, Right?”: Tom Brady Almost Spilled His Un-Retirement Plans to Cristiano Ronaldo Ahead of Official Announcement

The NFL is head over heels right now as the GOAT has returned for yet another season. Tom Brady recently took to social media to announce his plans to un-retire and run it back with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 2022 season will be more than what was expected before and the fans can’t simply catch their breath for it.

The Bucs is the happiest team right now, as the heart and soul of the team has finally taken a decision to become an eighth-time Super Bowl winner with the franchise. However, just the day before, the 44-year-old veteran was spotted in Old Trafford to watch the Manchester United vs. Tottenham Hotspur matchup.

Cristiano Ronaldo asked Tom Brady about his return plans

During that game, the ManU star and soccer icon Cristiano Ronaldo scored a hattrick against the Harry Kane led Spurs. And since Tom Brady was there to spectate, the two GOATs had a brief chat after the game. In a tweet shared by The Athlete Show, Tom Brady posted a story in which Ronaldo was asking Brady about his future and the NFL veteran gave a very bleak answer.

Though the audio of the clip was not all perfect, but The Athletic reporter Greg Auman did confirm that Ronaldo, in fact, asked Brady “You’re finished, right?” And that he answered the question with “a shrug of hesitation.” Doesn’t it sound like he had the return ticket to the NFL already planned?

The exceptional performance of the soccer star in the field might have revoked Brady’s innermost desires to rip the gridiron and fetch another Super Bowl out of it. Or maybe he already had it all well planned.

The most anticipated season for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers

All in all, it can be said that he certainly stole all the spotlight from Russell Wilson and Aaron Rodgers to make the most anticipated move of the offseason. Now that he has returned, the Bucs will be able to face their star opponents of next season with pride and passion.

The Bucs are scheduled to meet the Super Bowl champions Los Angeles Rams, the contenders Cincinnati Bengals, the NFC No. 1 seeded Green Bay Packers, and the phenomenal Kansas City Chiefs who appeared in the AFC Championship game for four years consecutively.
