Cristiano is already with Portugal, Martinez’ words that excites Portugal fans on winning a new Euro

Cristiano Ronaldo is 39 years old, but despite his age, he is still called up for the national team and will play in EURO 2024.

He had an amazing season with Al Nassr, as he was the top goalscorer of the team and of the Saudi Pro League. The Portuguese national team manager, Roberto Martinez, explains his reasoning for the call-up of CR7, and the Portuguese fans are excited as the intention is to win another European Championship. Martinez praised Ronaldo and said, “Cristiano is ready to help his national team and give everything he can. There is no other player in the world who provides for his national team like Cristiano does.” Ronaldo will play in his sixth EUROS with the Portugal national team, as he played in 2004, 2008, 2012, 2016, and 2020.

 

Cristiano Ronaldo joined the national team yesterday after his vacation with his family in Saudi Arabia. The Portuguese star was in a good mood as he looked more motivated than ever to win the EUROS. CR7 wants to win another European Championship after winning it with Portugal in 2016. The striker had a fantastic season with Al Nassr but couldn’t win a major trophy, which makes him strive for a major trophy this year.

 

Martinez talked about the experience he brings to the squad as he will be playing his sixth EUROS in his career and has played in two finals before [2004 and 2016]. The manager said, “Cristiano has a very consistent performance at his club. There is no doubt that he is an incredible goalscorer, he is the only player to have played five Euros and will play a sixth. We are talking about a unique achievement in world football, and his experience is important to us.”

Jose Mourinho on Cristiano Ronaldo’s call-up to the national team

Another manager who praised Cristiano Ronaldo for being part of the Portuguese national team is Jose Mourinho. The ‘Special One’ talked highly about CR7 and Roberto Martinez, as the EURO 2024 seems like a great tournament for them to win. Mourinho said, “Cristiano is the one who knows how he feels, what his goals are, and how the coach wants to use him, whether to play every minute of every match or in decisive moments. But there is a lot that happens inside and overlaps between them. Cristiano has a heavy load. He will definitely score goals, and I don’t think he will leave the Euros without goals.”
