A question about the current situation regarding Cristiano Ronaldo.
According to the Portuguese press,
He would have taken your internationally portrayed image.
You met him. What do you think of his international career?
And share your thoughts on what he might have failed at.
He lost his career.
I think it's precisely necessary to save yourself from your great career.
What he did was exceptional. I had the chance to have her with me.
He made me win incredible things.
So, for me, it's a hat tip to Cristiano, I always have
Great respect, in any case, to all players,
but even more so for those with whom I spent time,
and especially for Cristiano, who has done so much for us.
Regarding Cris, I had a conversation with Cris,
I also talked to him.
and I think what I told him, and what I am repeating here,
The most important thing is that, regardless of what happens,
Cris will never cease to be the greatest symbol of our national team.
the greatest symbol of our football, and probably, not probably,
Undoubtedly, the greatest symbol of our country for everything it has done,
not only in Portugal, but throughout the world.
I'm sure he has a reserved spot.
not only among the greatest of all time,
but in the heart of every Portuguese person
And I think the most important thing now is for us to stop dividing the waters.
because here there are no divisions in the selection,
The selection is one and will always remain one.
We are far beyond what has been
All this controversy
around this subject
but what I'm asking for once again
that the country not be divided, that it not make choices
Long live this all in one
that respects and accepts
all sides
moreover, as I said
Oh Chris, you will always be the greatest icon
from our selection, from our football
and also of world football
He deserves the respect of all Portuguese people.
regardless of who likes it more
I liked it less
