He could have extended his legacy if he kept playing football in Europe and win another title at the age of 38 or 39 or even 40. His choice to go to Saudi Arabia when he started failing at Manchester United was not the most impressive move. But he was after the money and that's probably understandable when you are offered so much money. But I doubt that his fans, especially the younger generations, follow as much what he is doing in Saudi Arabia as they would if he was still playing for a great club in Europe.
for me, it does not really matter if after failing at Man United, he decides to earn more money in Saudi Arabia to get a guarantee of a big salary after he retires, thats very natural and I admit that his physique is very strong, even his stamina is still very strong, and even though he does not can get another title in europe but he can increase the popularity of football in Saudi Arabia and this is a challenge for Ronaldo.
on the one hand, maybe we dont need to worry too much about the younger generation imitating Ronaldo to go to the SPL because the younger generation of european players find it very difficult to think about going to the SPL because they definitely want to get experience and prestigious titles in Europe before going to Saudi Arabia at a slightly older age. like Ronaldo.
