GettyTHE BIGGER PICTURE
Ronaldo is determined to reach 1,000 career goals before hanging up his boots, with that quest being aided by a new two-year contract in the Middle East. That may not be the last deal that he signs, with there still talk of him returning to his roots at Sporting.
GettyWHAT BROWN SAID
Brown, who worked with Ronaldo at Old Trafford, told GOAL when asked about the evergreen Portugal international and his ongoing commitment to playing at the highest level: “His body should be given to scientists when he finally rests! He’s a machine.
“He obviously likes it there [Al-Nassr]. He gets treated well. Believe me, if he didn’t want to carry on, he wouldn’t. He loves the game. He’s enjoying himself. He still does the business, and that’s all you can hope for.
“At any point he could retire and relax, do whatever he wanted, but he still wants to be part of football. He still wants to break records and make records. Rather than looking at that negatively, you have to look at that as so much of a positive. Especially for the younger lads coming through - how much he puts in and is willing to put in.
“He’s willing to put his body through stuff just to carry on playing football. For him, I’m really happy he’s been able to do that.”
