A controversial confession about Cristiano Ronaldo's retirement will be talked about a lot.

The shocking truth about the retirement of Cristiano Ronaldo, who recently surpassed the 900-goal mark and became the first player in history to do so, has been revealed without disturbing his current HTML. Former Portuguese national team player Costinha, who retired from football many years ago, spoke about Ronaldo in an interview with A Bola.

HE WANTS TO QUIT FOOTBALL AT 30

The former defender said about the 39-year-old global superstar, "In a friendly match against Kazakhstan in 2003, he told me that he wanted to quit football at the age of 30 and do different things."

"HE WILL SURPASS 1000 GOALS"

Costinha concluded his remarks about Cristiano Ronaldo with the following words:

"More than twenty years have passed and he is still playing a lot and playing well. Whether he reaches the goal of 1000 goals will depend on many factors, especially how long he wants to continue playing. I have no doubt that he will try. He has always lived like an athlete. Even at the age of 18, he had incredible willpower. That's why I'm not surprised by what he has achieved. He is a fantastic player and a true professional, an excellent person. I take my hat off to him."
