“She will have him all the time 24/7. Now he goes training. He travels two games, maybe,” mentioned ESPN’s Julien Laurens after Georgina Rodriguez spoke about Cristiano Ronaldo’s retirement plans. As fans, we know soccer is his life, similar to his family. Fans can watch his well-documented life for years to come and the latest show, ‘I Am Georgina’, focuses on the family side of things.

The docuseries based on Ronaldo’s partner’s life showcases the happening of their family. On one visit to Real Madrid’s stadium, Georgina and her kids saw Ronaldo’s jersey framed up the wall. At that moment, Ronaldo’s girlfriend explained how soccer is his life. Yes, it’s true. He just can’t seem to get out of the game.

Georgina stated, “He’s so hardworking. I often say to him, ‘Come on, Cris you already have everything. Let’s enjoy life a little.’ And he says, ‘You guys are my everything but football is my passion.'” The passion stays intact. He wants more in his career!

Starting his career in Sporting Lisbon, he went to Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus, a comeback to United again, and presently plies his trade for Al-Nassr. All those clubs are the top soccer teams in the world, with him shining everywhere. Therefore, Georgina mentioned how Ronaldo could go forward and play until he reached 50. His fitness levels remain at an all-time high, with most of his training videos on his Instagram page or the docuseries.

She continued, “And it’s incredible how, to this day he’s still just as motivated as he was on the first day I met him. It’s like it never fades. So when People ask me, ‘When do you think he’s going to retire?’ I say, honestly, maybe when he’s 50.” 50 sounds like a big number, right? At this rate, he can play until 50. He will be in good company as well!

Cristiano Ronaldo to match ‘King Kazu’?

If you talk about fitness, the first name on the list is Japanese soccer player Kazuyoshi Miura. He plays for the fourth-tier side Atletico Suzuka Club at the age of 50. Imagine playing professional soccer at 50. Some managers are successful when they reach 50. Here players are still playing, following their passion.

It takes passion and commitment to keep going. Affectionately known as King Kazu, the player continues to play soccer at the highest level in his 39th professional season. Now the question is? Can Cristiano match Miura’s long career?

With LeBron James playing with his son Bronny James in the next season, we could see Cristiano Ronaldo playing with Cristiano Jr. That would be incredible, considering the age difference between Junior and Ronaldo. Thus, Ronaldo has unfinished business. He wants to reach 1000 goals!
