In his famous interview with British broadcaster Piers Morgan, Cristiano Ronaldo opened up about the conversation he had with NFL legend Tom Brady. The-then Manchester United superstar claimed that Tom Brady gave him a lot of good energy and called him an intelligent guy.
On February 1, record seven-time Super Bowl winner Tom Brady announced his final retirement from the sport. The 45-year-old first announced his retirement at the end of last season, but took a u-turn just six weeks in, committing to his 23rd NFL season. In an emotional video, Brady confirmed that he would not be changing his mind this time around.
Just before reversing his retirement decision last year, Tom Brady went to Manchester to watch Cristiano Ronaldo in action. The Portuguese scored a sensational hat-trick to propel United to a 3-2 victory over Tottenham Hotspur on March 12.
In his interview with Morgan, which aired in November, Cristiano Ronaldo opened up about his chat with Tom Brady, calling it an enriching experience. On Morgan's Uncensored, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner said:
“Psychology, see? I thought he [Brady] took the decision [retirement reversal] a few weeks before. We spoke in general. He's a very, very smart guy, he knows a lot about football.
“We had a nice conversation. He gave me good energy. When you have another GOAT, it's energy. It's all about energy. When you have good energy around you, I can do interesting things.”
In the same interview, Ronaldo went on to slam Manchester United, their owners, and coach Erik ten Hag, which led to his premature departure in November. He signed a two-and-a-half-year deal, worth $200 million per year, with Al-Nassr in January.
