Chris Waddle Predicts Ronaldo Could Chase Euro 2028 After World Cup Exit
Former England winger Chris Waddle says Cristiano Ronaldo may not be ready to retire from Portugal duty just yet. He noted that Ronaldo only mentioned stepping away from the World Cup, leaving the door open for one more European Championship. Waddle suggested the five-time Ballon d’Or winner could still aim to represent Portugal at Euro 2028 when he would be 43. He also argued that using Ronaldo as an impact substitute might have maximised his influence rather than starting him in every match. The former Newcastle and Tottenham midfielder assessed that Ronaldo struggled with intensity in the recent tournament but still has the skill and drive to compete at major international events.
