Bruno Fernandes predicts Ronaldo's plans after World Cup 2026

Bruno Fernandes in a latest press conference has opened up on the plans of Portugal's captain Cristiano Ronaldo after the 2026 World Cup.

Cristiano Ronaldo continues to defy expectations, and teammate Bruno Fernandes is confident that the legendary forward will extend his career beyond the 2026 World Cup. With Portugal's ambition to claim a world title, Ronaldo's relentless drive and passion for football are expected to keep fueling his pursuit of excellence. His illustrious career boasts numerous honors, including five Ballon d’Ors, four European Golden Shoes, and a record three UEFA Men’s Player of the Year awards.

Given his extraordinary achievements and unyielding commitment, it’s plausible that Ronaldo will maintain his elite performance level well past 2026. Already regarded as one of the greatest players in history, the prospect of further accomplishments only adds to his remarkable legacy.

Approaching a monumental milestone of 1,000 career goals, Ronaldo has netted an impressive 917 goals so far, accompanied by 256 assists. As he nears his 40th birthday and prepares for the upcoming World Cup, his hunger for greatness remains undiminished, and the world will be watching to see if he can reach this historic goal tally while leading Portugal to glory.

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes recently shared his thoughts with TNT Sports about Ronaldo’s potential appearance in another World Cup, “I’m not just hopeful; I’m almost certain he’ll be there. It would be incredible for Cristiano to fulfill his dream of winning the World Cup with Portugal—not only for him but for the entire nation. As the ultimate figure in Portuguese football, winning the World Cup would be a fitting conclusion to his career. However, even if he achieved that, I’m not sure he would stop. He always strives to improve and learn, showing that year after year. For anyone who doubts, he continuously proves his ambition and work ethic. For us, the main objective is to go to the World Cup and win it. It’s a dream for all Portuguese people and Cristiano’s fans worldwide.”

Commenting on Ronaldo’s potential to complete his medal collection, Fernandes added, “Winning the World Cup would be monumental for Cristiano, likely marking the perfect end to his international career by securing both the European Championship and the World Cup—trophies Portugal had never won before. Such a victory wouldn’t be just a day of celebration but a week-long festivity across Portugal.”
