In an interview on Piers Morgan’s Uncensored podcast, the Portuguese icon described the 79-year-old as “one of those people who could help change the world.”
The remark from the world’s most-followed footballer has sparked widespread discussion across social media, with fans and commentators divided between those who support and those who criticize his opinion. Ronaldo did not go into detail about why he believes this, but many have interpreted his words as a gesture of respect toward the global influence that major political figures like Trump possess.
Cristiano Ronaldo, known not only for his exceptional football talent but also for his massive influence on public opinion, rarely comments on political matters.
Despite the controversy, Ronaldo’s statement highlights how prominent figures from different fields — including sports — continue to play a role in public debates about global leadership and the influence of powerful individuals such as Donald Trump.
