'If you don't reach a certain level, you should close the shop': Antonio Cassano calls on Ronaldo to retire

Speaking to Cabine Desportiva, former Italy striker Antonio Cassano said: "At this point, Cristiano Ronaldo should do himself a favour.

"It's important for him to understand that if you don't reach a certain level, you should close the shop.

"He won everything, he was a phenomenon. Stop! You have to stop or you'll only run into the bench."

37-year-old is no longer a key player at Manchester United under Erik ten Hag, starting the last four games in the Premier League on the bench.

The forward scored his first goal of the 2022/23 season just before the break and the Portuguese will now be hoping to win back the manager's trust.
