“For me it is obviously an honor to receive an award of this dimension, to be the best scorer in the history of the national teams. I never thought that one day I could make it,” he said, thanking “everyone who was important in my career.”
“It was a long journey, but I would also like to say that my journey is not over yet. They will still take a little more load off Cris”, he declared.
“I still feel motivated, I feel like my ambition is still up there. I am in a team with many young players still, with an extraordinary future and obviously I want to be part of this World Cup and also the European Championship, I will take charge immediately, “Ronaldo said with a laugh. The World Cup takes place this year in Qatar, starting on November 20.
The soccer player thanked the Federation, highlighting the “extraordinary work”, which from the player’s point of view can be seen in the “facilities” and “conditions, in futsal, in all other modalities, in the younger layers , in women’s sport, which is getting better and better.”
“I think the Federation has done an excellent job, I hope it continues, I hope to be part of the Federation for a few more years as well,” Ronaldo said.
