Former Chelsea and England captain, defender John Terry, believes that young players should look up to Cristiano Ronaldo, the forward of Al-Nassr and the Portuguese national team.
For any young player, I would say (Ronaldo) is your prime example of who to look up to. To be doing what he's doing at his age is incredible.

Ronaldo has been playing for Al-Nassr since January 2023. In his 48 matches for the Saudi Arabian club, he has scored 42 goals and made 13 assists.
In January 2024, he received three Globe Soccer Awards, being named Player of the Year by fans, Best Footballer in the Middle East, and Top Scorer of 2023.
On February 21, the goal of the renowned Portuguese forward helped the "Knights" to defeat Al-Fayha in the second leg of the AFC Champions League Round of 16 (2-0 on aggregate, first match 1-0) and advance to the next stage of the tournament.
Earlier, Ronaldo admitted that he takes pride in his achievements compared to young footballers such as Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe. The 39-year-old forward emphasized that his performance is not related to the lower level of the Saudi Pro League compared to the Premier League and Ligue 1.
