Former Manchester United player, Wes Brown, has said that Ronaldo’s body should be given to “scientists” when he retires from the sport, due to his out-of-this-world fitness level at 40.

Brown has played alongside Ronaldo. He praises Ronaldo for his consistency. Speaking on behalf of UK casinos Casino.org, Brown told GOAL when asked about the evergreen Portugal international and his ongoing commitment to playing at the highest level:

“His body should be given to scientists when he finally rests! He’s a machine.

“He obviously likes it there [Al-Nassr]. He gets treated well. Believe me, if he didn’t want to carry on, he wouldn’t. He loves the game. He’s enjoying himself. He still does the business, and that’s all you can hope for.

“He’s willing to put his body through stuff just to carry on playing football. For him, I’m really happy he’s been able to do that.”
