Ronaldo set to announce retirement as injuries become too much for former Brazil striker to take
Ronaldo had already spoken in terms of retiring at the end of the year. But a succession of injuries and the elimination of his club, Corinthians, from the Copa Libertadores, South Americas most prestigious club tournament, appears to have pushed the date forward.
I cant take any more, the 34-year-old star told the Estado de Sao Paulo newspaper. I wanted to continue, but I cant do it any more. I think of an action, but I cant do it the way I want to. Its time.
Its the body thats hurting me, he told Globo television. The head wants to go on, but the body cant take any more.
The Copa trophy, the equivalent of Europes Champions League trophy, was the only one Ronaldo had not won in what has been a spectacular career.
Widely regarded as one of the greatest players of all time, the player known as El Fenomeno during his prime had held out hopes of one last World Cup in South Africa last year.
He had, after all, shrugged off injury in the 2002 tournament to help Brazil to the trophy, ending the tournament as top scorer on 15 goals, a total that has not yet been bettered.
