Former Portuguese international Fonte revealed Ronaldo’s disciplined lifestyle while playing for the national team in his column.
Fonte stated: “Besides his ability, Ronaldo’s mindset is always great. I often saw him in the gym after training, while everyone else went home, he was working hard to get stronger and faster.”
“He’s competitive and craves competition, he’d do more push-ups in the showers after training than anyone else. That’s also why he’s still playing for Portugal in Euro 2024 at 39. Mentally, he’s unbeatable.”
“As the Portuguese captain, he’s always been very outspoken, but he’s also a role model for the team, both on and off the field. Whatever he does, we do. I remember all of us taking ice baths and saunas at 2 AM because of him, which not only helped our bodies recover, but more importantly, we did these things as a team.”
