Cristiano Ronaldo says he plans on retiring from football in ‘two or three years’ but has not made a final decision on when to call an end to his glittering career.

The 39-year-old turns 40 in February but he’s still going strong for Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia and is yet to retire from international duty.

Ronaldo will represent Portugal in the Nations League next month and he’s not given up hope of playing at the World Cup in 2026.

Nevertheless, the former Manchester United and Real Madrid superstar knows he’s in the twilight of his career.

Ronaldo has been linked with a return to Europe in the form of former club Sporting Lisbon.

But the Portuguese says he will likely retire at his current club, Al-Nassr.

‘I don’t know if I will retire soon, in two or three years but probably I will retire here at Al Nassr’, Ronaldo told NOW.

‘I’m very happy at this club, I feel good in this country too’.

‘I’m happy to play in Saudi Arabia and I want to continue.

Ronaldo is coy on his plans for when he hangs up his boots.

However, the former Juventus man says it’s unlikely that he will go into management.

‘At the moment, I’m not thinking about being a coach of the first team or any team. It doesn’t even cross my mind, I’ve never thought about it,’ said Ronaldo.

‘I don’t see my future going through that. I see myself doing other things outside of football, but only God knows what the future holds.’
