Surprised to be the first to say this on the forum, but I was reading the sports news and found it out
SAO PAULO (AP)—A Brazilian newspaper says three-time FIFA player of the year Ronaldo will announce his retirement from football on Monday.
The website of the Estado de S. Paulo newspaper reported Sunday that the former Brazil striker says “it’s time” to end his 18-year career.
Ronaldo was quoted by the newspaper as saying that he “wanted to continue” but “can’t anymore. He said his career “was beautiful.”
Ronaldo’s agent, Fabiano Farah, didn’t confirm the report but told local media that it is a possibility.
A news conference has been scheduled for Monday afternoon at Corinthians’ headquarters.
Ronaldo, the all-time World Cup scoring leader with 15 goals, helped Brazil win the title in 2002.
