Age has finally caught up with Ronaldo - Agbonlahor

Gabriel Agbonlahor, a former Aston Villa player, has said that Manchester United’s Cristiano Ronaldo’s age has finally caught up with him.

Ronaldo’s legs appear worn, according to Agbonlahor, who added that the 37-year-old isn’t giving anything offensively and doesn’t need to start every Man United game.

Age has finally caught up with Ronaldo - Agbonlahor

Ronaldo has become Man United’s top scorer in all competitions this season after rejoining the club from Juventus in the summer of 2021.

“Watching Ronaldo right now will be excruciating for many Manchester United fans.” He’s 37; he’s outperformed most footballers by five or six years, but you can’t avoid aging. “Age comes up with everyone, and it appears like Ronaldo has caught up,” Agbonlahor told Football Insider.

“His legs appear fatigued; he does not appear to be as swift and sharp in getting around players.” He’s also not a presser from the front either. With all of that, it doesn’t make sense for him to continue,” he explained.

“But who else do they have?” he continued. They don’t have many other options. Unless Rashford is used as a striker or a false nine.

“It’s a major concern for Manchester United if they have Ronaldo and Cavani as possibilities up front next season.”

After winning the Champions League, Kylian Mbappé is expected to be announced as a new signing by Real Madrid the following week.

In February, the 25-year-old international athlete made his choice. He can now be regarded as a new Real player because every document has been completed, sealed, and signed.

As per media reports, Kylian Mbappé joined Real Madrid from Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer. “.. I wanted to announce to you all that it’s my last year at Paris Saint-Germain. I will not extend and the adventure will come to an end in a few weeks. I will play my last game as Parc des Princes on Sunday,” Mbappe said in a video statement on X.

“It’s a lot of emotions. (For) many years I had the chance and great honour to be a member of the biggest French club, one of the best in the world which allowed me to travel here,” Mbappe added.

“It’s hard and I never thought it would be this difficult to announce that I will leave the country, France, the league and the Championship. But I think, I needed this, a new challenge after seven years.”
