Ronaldo plans to play for Real Madrid after 40


Cristiano Ronaldo has revealed he would work hard to remain a footballer at Real Madrid beyond his 40th birthday.
Ronaldo signed for Madrid in a record-breaking transfer from Manchester United in 2009 and has gone on to win two Champions leaguue titles and one La Liga title.
This season, he overtook Raul as the leading scorer in the club’s history, cementing his place as one of their all-time greats.
The 31-year-old has regularly been linked with a move to Paris Saint-Germain in recent years, but he is not planning on leaving the Santiago Bernabeu anytime soon.
Ronaldo told AS:“I am going to retire at Real Madrid when I’m older than 40. I am very happy here and will work hard to achieve that.”
Ronaldo scored the winning penalty as Madrid overcame neighbours Atletico Madrid in the Champions League final last weekend.
