Cristiano Ronaldo offers glimpse of what his coaching career might look like

Cristiano Ronaldo has often showcased his leadership skills while donning Portugal's jersey as well as of various clubs, however, one cannot help but wonder what the striker might bring to the table as a coach or a manager.

Ronaldo recently took to social media to share a video of him offering advice to some rookies and fans helping them to navigate through football drills.

The video offers a nostalgic flashback to the Euro 2016 final where Ronaldo — after being replaced due to an injury early in the game — partially took over manager Fernando Santos' role and guided his team from the sidelines.

Whether Ronaldo will continue to actively remain part of the game via coaching or managerial roles is yet to be seen as the former Real Madrid striker, despite calls from some fans and critics for him to retire, is seemingly far away from bidding farewell to the football pitch after becoming the highest goal scorer of 2023.

At present, the 38-year-old star is spending time in rehabilitation following a muscle injury which has left him unable to feature for his Saudi club for now.

Ronaldo's injury might sideline Ronaldo for a couple of weeks, potentially affecting his participation in the Riyadh Cup against Inter Miami, where he could miss a reunion with long-time rival Lionel Messi.
