"When I mean soon ... I'm really enjoying the moment right now. As you know in football, when you reach some age you count the months very quick. So, the moment is good, I feel very good in this moment, I score goals, I still feel quick and sharp, I'm enjoying my game in the national team and Al Nassr, but of course, let's be honest, when I mean 'soon' it's probably one, two years I'll still be in the game."
"Definitely, yes, because I will be 41 years old and I think it will be the moment, and in a big competition. As I told you before, I am enjoying the moment, but when I mean soon, it's really soon because I give everything for football, I'm in the game for the last 25 years, I did everything, I have many records in the different scenarios in the clubs and also in the national team -- I'm really proud. So let's enjoy the moment and live the moment."

He is 40 years old and will be 41 during the 2026 World Cup. He is enjoying the moment, feels quick and sharp, continues to score goals and performs for both Al Nassr and the Portugal national team. He signed a new two-year contract with Al Nassr in June. The World Cup remains the major international trophy missing from his career after winning the 2016 European Championship.
