Following a drama-filled last couple of months between Ronaldo and his national side, the 41-year-old this morning took to social media, to announce his decision to bring the curtain down on his legendary Portugal stint.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner has closed out his time on the international stage with a record-breaking 234 appearances and 146 goals to his name.
And as alluded to above, amongst a whole host of messages from across the world of football, Ronaldo has seen his achievements on the international front recognised by legendary figures from both Barcelona and Real Madrid.
