Portugal coach Martinez: Ronaldo is obsessed with the desire to be the best
Portugal national team head coach Roberto Martinez shared his opinion about the 39-year-old team striker Cristiano Ronaldo. His words are quoted on the website of the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA).
Martinez admitted that he is surprised by Ronaldo, who constantly defies his age. “A high-achieving player who could choose how much effort he put into training, driven by winning, obsessed with being the best, obsessed with the perfection he wants to achieve in his career. It’s contagious,” the specialist noted.
Ronaldo was included in the Portuguese national team’s squad for Euro 2024. For the forward, this will be the sixth European Championship in his career.
Ronaldo is a five-time Ballon d’Or winner. He has five Champions League victories to his name, as well as league titles in England, Spain and Italy. Together with the Portuguese national team, the footballer became the 2016 European champion, as well as the silver and bronze medalist of the continental championship.
