The Portugal forward has revealed his desire to own several football clubs as he celebrates his 40th birthday. Cristiano Ronaldo says it is his "dream" to own several clubs in the future as he celebrates his 40th birthday. The Portugal superstar has given no indication whatsoever of retiring yet, and continues to represent his country as well as playing for Al Nassr in the Saudi Pro League. However, he has revealed he does not see himself coaching or managing, but instead having his own stable of clubs.
"It doesn't make a lot of sense to be director of a club. If I can be a club owner, why would I be a manager, sporting director or CEO?," told Portuguese television station Canal 11. "That is a dream of mine and I am sure I'll be a club owner. And I'll tell you more. I hope to have not just one club, but several clubs.". Ronaldo would be following in the footsteps of his Brazilian namesake, who owns a majority stake in Spanish side Real Valladolid.
