“Cristiano [Ronaldo] is Obsessed” – Roberto Martinez Lauds Al Nassr Ace Over His Obsession of ‘Being the Best’

We all know that Cristiano Ronaldo‘s records and performances are exceptional. The highest goal scorer in the world has been consistent even until now. But the life of a successful athlete is far more complex than just numbers. And Ronaldo’s attention to certain details cannot be ignored. In awe of the star for multiple reasons, the national team coach has recently lauded the captain, calling him ‘obsessed.’ From nutrition to workout, the veteran takes care of ‘every little detail‘.

The striker from Madeira, a year ago, was deemed to have been finished by the media. The player had a torrid first half of the season, however, the player’s stint at Al Nassr blew away coach Roberto Martinez.

Roberto Martinez goes gaga over 38-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo’s mindset

The player finished 2023 with 54 goals, despite being 38 years old. But that’s not what Portugal coach Roberto Martinez is talking about. The coach is awestruck by Ronaldo’s mentality of winning and helping the team when needed. According to reports, Matinez said, “Cristiano is obsessed with being the best and obsessed with winning, and that’s what a coach wants. He’s obsessed with what he can do to prepare himself to help the team.”

The first thing that comes to mind for soccer fans when they hear about the Al Nassr captain is his discipline. Never missing training sessions, the star always maintains the needed preparation for the game. Another aspect of Cristiano Ronaldo is his crazy obsession with winning. The player has recently revealed that he is not done yet. The veteran is working towards winning many trophies for Al Nassr too.

But Martinez is amazed at how the star takes care of the national team. The 2024 Euro Qualifiers last year are a firm example of his contribution to the team. Scoring a massive 10 goals and leading them to an invincible triumph in the qualifiers, Ronaldo showed no signs of fatigue or injuries, which is a clear testament to what Martinez feels about his fitness as well.

Martinez further said, “He goes into finding every little detail to allow his body to be at its best, from nutrition to pre-workout before training and after training and the way he takes care of his muscles. He always talks to anyone who has experience about the group, such as doctors, to find out more that can make it better,” which makes the athlete stand above the rest.

The frustration on the pitch, the expectations from the youngsters, and the hunger to win trophies are clear indicators of the standards Cristiano Ronaldo sets. Going ahead, the coach and the star will now look to regain the Euro title, which they gave up to Italy in 2021. Martinez replaced former coach Fernando Santos after the shocking 2022 World Cup quarterfinal exit, in which Santos benched CR7. Nevertheless, the bond between the current coach and the captain looks promising for the Portuguese national team.
