It doesn't look like we'll ever see Cristiano Ronaldo bringing his on-pitch theatrics to the touchline.

At 30-years-old, Real Madrid star Ronaldo is about to enter the twilight years of his career, cue rampant speculation about what he'll be doing when he eventually hangs up his record-breaking boots.

In a broad interview with Spanish newspaper El Mundo, Ronaldo has ruled out a career as a coach or manager and revealed that football isn't actually that interesting to him:

"I have a top life, but I think I am going to enjoy it more when I finish my career, when I have time to do what I like...I am not going to cry about it now because I am making a sacrifice in inverted commas, but after I want to live like a king.

Ronaldo's disdain for his lifestyle is hard to understand.

To further underline how difficult his life as one of the world's greatest athletes is, Ronaldo told a story of not being able to fly to Las Vegas and watch boxing because he's so busy.

We wish we could relate.
