With there <\/span>no sign of Ronaldo hanging up history-making boots<\/span><\/a> any time soon, Djemba-Djemba added on the longevity that one of the best to ever play the game can enjoy: \u201cI think he can go to 44, 45, Cristiano can do that, he has energy to do that.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHe’s amazing. I don’t know how he does it, but he’s a robot, he’s amazing! I think Cristiano can go until 44, but he cannot do until 44, 45, with the national team and his team. But Cristiano can go to 44, easily.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

While suggesting that CR7 may struggle to juggle the demands of domestic and international action if extending his career for a few more years, Djemba-Djemba admits that it is impossible to rule out the <\/span>prospect of a seventh World Cup finals being graced<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

With FIFA\u2019s flagship event heading to Portugal – alongside Spain and Morocco – in 2030, a man that knows Ronaldo well said of the evergreen frontman achieving the seemingly impossible: \u201cI think if Cristiano goes to 44, and in four years the World Cup is in Portugal, if Cristiano is still playing, I think it will be a good last competition for him to finish his career in Portugal with the World Cup.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI’m sure in Portugal they will say yes for the manager to bring him to be there in the squad. I would do that for him, bring him in the squad, to say to him thank you for everything he did for his country.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
