Over the years, Cristiano Ronaldo has proven why he is the greatest of all time. The striker has been determined to win and conquer glory wherever he goes. In fact, the player’s individual laurels are enough to prove why he is considered a legendary player.
The Portuguese born has enjoyed a stellar career in soccer, thus winning much silverware with his domestic and international sides. After joining Al-Nassr a few months ago, Ronaldo still chooses to prove himself in a completely different league.

Since then, the player has enjoyed a fair share of ups and down with the club, thus becoming a key figure at the club. The latter has scored nine goals in eight matches, one of which he recently added during an emphatic comeback against Abha.
Fans downhearted as Cristiano Ronaldo pictured with gray hair
Even at the age of 38-year-old, the player is defying all the odds and is giving his best on the pitch. Moreover, there’s no doubt about his fitness levels as he has an athleticism of a 24-year-old.
However, no matter how much he keeps up with his body, age is merely a number that increases every year. Hence, old age seems to have finally begun in the case of Ronaldo, as the superstar was recently pictured with a little gray hair.
This is, of course, a concerning moment for his loyal fans, who are getting quite emotional after they came across the picture.

It’s sad to think that one day Ronaldo will be hanging up his boots. However, old age is inevitable and it will be happening any day. The only thing fans can do now is cherish the moment right now.
A nostalgic performance
We are sad seeing Ronaldo’s gray hair, however, that doesn’t rule out the fact he still got it. The skipper led his side to an important 2-1 win against Abha, thus scoring a beautiful long-range free-kick.
