As Ronaldo’s contract is set to expire next June, Lawrenson believes the timing would be ideal for the legendary player to consider ending his illustrious career.
The 67-year-old told Paddy Power via GOAL,
“Cristiano Ronaldo is still scoring in Saudi Arabia, but would he sign a new contract there? I’m not sure.
“This is when I think he needs a best mate who says, ‘You’ve had an unbelievable run, and maybe at the end of this season, just hang your boots up and let people remember you for what you’ve done.’”
“He doesn’t want to go through half a season where he scores something like six goals in the Saudi league.”
