Portugal national team head coach Roberto Martinez believes that "Al-Nassr" and Portugal national team striker Cristiano Ronaldo will remain a great figure in world football, regardless of the outcome of the 2026 World Cup.
Idman.Biz reports that Portugal will play in a group with Uzbekistan and Colombia at the World Cup.
"Whether Cristiano becomes a world champion or not, he will remain the best player in football history. Our responsibility is to make the most of the opportunity to fight for the cup. This requires constant analysis, self-improvement and the right mindset, which helped us win the League of Nations.
I have never worked with a player who prepares to improve himself every morning. If Ronaldo could play forever, it would greatly facilitate the adaptation of young players to the national team. He intends to use every day to become stronger," - Goal.com quotes Martinez.
