Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

Cristiano Ronaldo announced he will retire from the Portugal national team after 23 years, saying the time has come to hand the No. 7 shirt to a new generation. The 40-year-old forward, who holds the record for most international goals and caps, framed the decision as one made with the heart as much as the head. Ronaldo did not specify a final match date, leaving open whether he will feature at the 2026 World Cup. His exit marks the end of an era for Portugal, which must now build its attack around younger players.
