Names to make more than one federation salivate. While the presidency of the Brazilian Football federation will be up for grabs in March 2026, Ronaldo could well stand as a candidate. According to information from Sport, the legend of world football is preparing his campaign with a solid program.
The former striker remained involved in the world of football after his retirement in 2011 as he became owner and president of Real Valladolid in 2018, then of Cruzeiro, his training club, in 2021.
Among his ideas would be that of inducting Pep Guardiola as coach of the Seleção. The Spanish coach is also at the end of his contract in June 2025 with Manchester City, and could well be interested in the project proposed by his former teammate at FC Barcelona. The Spanish daily even mentions a “secret agreement” between the two men.
The former mentor of Barcelona and Bayern Munich has been in the sights of the CBF for some time now, who could take advantage of the aura of Ronaldo Nazario to attract him. The British media The Athletic even claims that the body has already contacted Pep Guardiola several times in recent months. And the Catalan would be well advised to imitate his German counterpart Thomas Tuchel, who took charge of England in October.
