Former Manchester United fullback and friend of Ronaldo: “After all this criticism he might as well quit”

Is Cristiano Ronaldo retiring? According to former teammate and friend Patrice Evra, hanging up his boots is a possible option for the Portuguese striker, who was criticized by his own countrymen at the World Cup and is currently without a team after his stormy farewell from Manchester United.

“I don’t know if Cristiano will retire, also because, some times when there is all this criticism, especially at the end of your career, you are there like ‘okay, it’s time to stop here,'” he told Sky Sports UK.

“Especially when you don’t start in the starting lineup in the national team, which in the end is the main reason Ronaldo wants to play and be fit. Winning the World Cup was his dream and now it’s gone. I won’t speak for him but I wouldn’t be surprised if he retires.”
