Jose Mourinho believes that Cristiano Ronaldo could lead Portugal to victory in the Euro 2024 in Germany this summer. Despite being almost 40 years old, Ronaldo continues to display remarkable prowess on the field, scoring goals consistently for both his club and country.
As a five-time Ballon d’Or winner, Ronaldo played a pivotal role in Portugal’s qualification for the upcoming tournament, scoring 10 goals in nine qualifying matches. With Ronaldo set to make history by participating in his sixth consecutive European Championship, Mourinho is optimistic about Portugal’s chances, citing the strength of the current generation of players, particularly under Ronaldo’s leadership.
Mourinho expressed his belief that Portugal has the potential to win the EURO, highlighting the capabilities of the current squad. Despite Portugal’s title defense ending in the Round of 16 at Euro 2020, losing to Belgium, Ronaldo’s impact on the team’s performance cannot be overstated.
As the all-time leading scorer in the European Championship, Ronaldo has consistently delivered for Portugal in major tournaments, scoring 14 goals and providing nine assists in 25 games across five European Championships. His impressive performances have played a crucial role in Portugal’s success, including their historic victory at Euro 2016.
