Apart from being one of the best football players this game has ever had, not much is known about Cristiano Ronaldo. Football fans are familiar with his expressive nature and somewhat eccentric behaviour on the pitch, but what is Ronaldo like in private? Not many people know that.Last Monday, the “Gala das Quinas de Ouro” award ceremony was held in Portugal, and the entire national team was present. A perfect opportunity for Ronaldo’s YouTube channel team to ask some intriguing questions about the 39-year-old’s private side. The interviewees? Renato Veiga, Bruno Fernandes, and Bernardo Silva.There’s just one thing about footballers Cristiano Ronaldo can’t understand after all these years…Chelsea’s defender, being the youngest, started first.”This is complicated, because I think he is a very private person, in a good way, I’m going to say something that I think people already know. The way he is dedicated to his work is unbelievable, especially when you are closer to him. He jumps almost two meters, three meters, he’s spectacular, he has many good attributes, but his jumping…” Veiga began.Ronaldo opens up about retirement and coaching careerHis older teammates, however, had much more fascinating information to share about their long-standing colleague.”I think there are many things you don’t know, you’re always around him to know what his life is like, but… he’s good at dancing, he has good dance steps,” Man United captain revealed while Silva mentioned CR7’s nutrition. “He doesn’t need to eat very often. I think he only eats lunch and dinner, he doesn’t eat small meals, I think that’s a good curiosity about him,” Bernardo added.Bruno Fernandes revealed a secret about Cristiano Ronaldo: “He dances well!” 😂 pic.twitter.com/tVrgZD0J6F— Shamim Sports. (@ShamimSports) November 13, 2024 Man City midfielder continued, focusing on Cristiano’s human qualities, remembering his beginnings.”Of course I have a lot of memories with him, we played together ten years ago, because that was when I started with the national team. I think one of the first times I arrived at the training camp, I didn’t know where to sit and some of the older players said ‘you can sit there, there’s a free space,’ but that was Cristiano’s place on the bus and when he arrived he started laughing and said ‘you can sit here with me,’ but I was in his place, I was just a kid of 20. The other guys tricked me and put me in Cristiano’s place, so that was actually funny,” said Silva.Ronaldo and Quaresma are reunited…at Sporting’s U14 team!Bruno’s earliest story with Ronaldo was pretty similar.”It’s funny, but also emotional. When I first arrived here I was surrounded by great players that I admired and I was quite shy, I didn’t want to talk to anyone, I would shake hands with my head down and Cristiano wasn’t there when I arrived, because I arrived very early and when he arrived he started talking to me, saying my name… and he said to me ‘I’ve seen your games, you’ve been scoring goals, playing very well for Sporting’ and I remember going back to the room to talk to my friends and family… ‘he’s been watching my games, how does he know my name?’, because it was the first time I was arriving at the national team and you admire these players and you always think that they don’t know who you are,” Fernandes said.“If Cristiano Ronaldo wasn’t a footballer, what would he be?”🌱 Bernardo Silva: “Nutritionist.” pic.twitter.com/4gsMEgldCl— Olúfẹmi (@olufemigas) November 14, 2024 Finally, the interviewers wanted to know what Cristiano’s profession would be if he weren’t a football player, and Bernardo had no dilemma.”Maybe a nutritionist, he loves this kind of thing, he’s always talking about it, about what you have to read to play better, to improve your health, to feel better, so I would say that,” said Silva, while Veiga agreed.”Definitely something related to nutrition, I think the physiology of the body,” he added.Conversely, Fernandes’ opinion differed.”I would say playing padel, I think he’s very interested in that, so it could be. If not… nutritionist or mental coach,” stated Bruno.UEFA NATIONS LEAGUE – GROUP STAGEDivision AThursday Belgium – Italy 0-1 (0-1)/Tonali 11/France – Israel 0-0Friday 22.45: (4.70) Denmark (3.50) Spain (1.80)22.45: (1.27) Portugal (5.90) Poland (10.5)22.45: (3.40) Scotland (3.40) Croatia (2.15)22.45: (1.85) Switzerland (3.60) Serbia (4.80)Saturday 22.45: (1.15) Germany (8.00) B&H (16.0)22.45: (1.40) Netherlands (4.70) Hungary (8.00)Sunday 22.45: (3.40) Italy (3.35) France (2.30)Division BThursday Kazakhstan – Austria 0-2 (0-2)/Baumgartner 15, Gregoritsch 25/Greece – England 0-3 (0-1)/Watkins 7, Vlachodimos 78 og, Jones 83/R.Ireland – Finland 1-0 (1-0)/Ferguson 45/Slovenia – Norway 1-4 (1-2)/Sesko 21 pen – Nusa 4, 59, Haaland 45, Hauge 82/Saturday 20.00: (2.50) Georgia (3.25) Ukraine (2.90)20.00: (2.50) Montenegro (3.25) Iceland (2.90)20.00: (1.77) Turkey (3.50) Wales (4.90)22.45: (3.20) Albania (3.30) Czech R.
