Ronaldo reveals he is not ready to retire from international football

In a recent interview with Sky Sports, Cristiano Ronaldo was asked if he's considered retiring from international football to focus on his club career.

The 36-year-old responded: "But why? I think it's not my time yet.

"It's not what people want, it's what I want. It's when I feel that I'm not capable to run, to dribble, to shoot, if the power is gone... but I still have that stuff so I want to continue because I'm still motivated.

"It's the main word - [motivated] to do my stuff, to make people happy and my family happy and the fans and myself. I want to put the level even higher.

"You speak about Portugal but in the Champions League I have the most goals, the most wins, assists… everything. But I want to carry on. I like to play football. I feel good to make people happy."

Ronaldo is currently the all-time top scorer (115 goals) in men's international football after surpassing Ali Daei's previous record of 109 for Iran.

He has a two-year contract with Manchester United but if he keeps this up, Cristiano could be part of the team for a few more seasons at least.
