Portuguese football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has reignited global debate after boldly claiming that he is the most famous person in the world — even more than former U.S. President Donald Trump.

In a teaser clip shared by British journalist Piers Morgan, Ronaldo confidently declared, “Do a debate — who is more famous, me or Trump? Worldwide, nobody is more famous than me.”

The short clip, promoting the second part of Ronaldo’s much-anticipated interview with Morgan, quickly went viral, sparking massive reactions across social media platforms.

Currently playing for Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner also discussed his ambition to lead Portugal to World Cup glory, insisting that such an achievement would “shock the world.”

“How many World Cups did Argentina win before [Lionel] Messi? They’re used to winning. If Portugal wins, which is possible, it will shock the world,” Ronaldo said.

At 40 years old, Ronaldo remains one of football’s most influential figures both on and off the pitch. He recently extended his contract with Al-Nassr until 2027, keeping open the possibility of appearing at another World Cup while continuing his pursuit of the 1,000 career goals milestone.

As discussions grow about what comes next for the global icon, football legend Teddy Sheringham has shared his thoughts, suggesting Ronaldo is unlikely to go into management after retirement.

“I can’t see Cristiano Ronaldo going into management,” Sheringham told Oddspedia. “He’s more likely to own a club rather than manage one — similar to what David Beckham did with Inter Miami. He’s someone who wants full control and influence.”

With his unmatched fame, enduring talent, and unrelenting ambition, Cristiano Ronaldo continues to dominate global headlines — proving that even in the twilight of his career, the world still can’t stop talking about him.
