Cristiano Ronaldo recently reached out to Ruben Amorim, the new manager of Manchester United, to wish him luck in his new role. Amorim officially started as the head of the team this week, taking over from Erik ten Hag who was let go earlier this month. United's season has had a slow start and Amorim will be looking to turn things around as the team prepares to face Ipswich Town in the Premier League next Sunday. Ronaldo, who had a second stint with United, left the team after a series of disagreements with Ten Hag. However, he is now hopeful that Amorim will bring success to Old Trafford.

Manchester United really need it." It was also reported that Ronaldo referred to Amorim as a "poet" in conversations with members of the Portugal national side. When asked about this, Amorim explained that it was just a playful nickname and that he speaks from the heart when he does talk.
While Amorim begins his journey as United's manager, Ronaldo is facing the fact that his playing career may be coming to an end soon. The 39-year-old shared, "I'm enjoying it. Planning my retirement from football...that will happen in a year, two years, I don't know. I'm enjoying the moment. I'm enjoying football." He also mentioned that when he no longer feels motivated to play, he will know it's time to step away. However, he is still feeling the passion and drive to play for the Portuguese national team, saying that it's what he enjoys the most. "In three months I'll be 40. I'm taking it easy and that's what I've been doing. What I like most is playing for the Portuguese national team. I really enjoy coming here. Scoring goals also helps," he shared.
