Cristiano Ronaldo has received a rogue comment from SC Braga, one of Portugal’s biggest football clubs, on his Instagram account.
The 37-year-old Manchester United superstar is back in his homeland, preparing for his country’s Nations League fixtures in June. Ronaldo - who missed United' s final day loss at Crystal Palace - has previously made it known that he wishes to play into his forties.
Many are seeing this winter’s World Cup as his last, but his statement indicates he is eyeing Euro 2024 which would likely be his final international tournament. For now, he will be attempting to help his side earn another Nations League crown after winning the inaugural edition of the competition in 2019.

On Friday, Ronaldo posted several photos of him in Portugal training on his Instagram ahead of next week’s games. He captioned it: “Home, sweet home!”
It soon received a reply from SC Braga, who are commonly touted as the country’s fourth biggest club, behind the ‘big three’ of Porto, Benfica and Sporting Lisbon - Ronaldo’s first club. The final photo posted by the player sees him bracing to take on a shot at goal.
In response, the club’s social media admin joked: “Third photo… you’ve missed right? Tell us the (truth). You still the GOAT.”
Ronaldo became the all-time men’s leading international scorer in November and has since increased his tally to an incredible 115 goals.
