Soares also revealed more about Ronaldo's personal habits to ensure quality sleep. Accordingly, Ronaldo never leaves his phone in the bedroom:

“One of the most special things about him is that at a certain hour, he will stop using his phone. Ronaldo thinks it affects his sleep, so he leaves his phone outside the bedroom.”

The Al Nassr striker even expressed concerns about the impact of new technology. "He once told me: 'Cédric, you can't use 5G because it can harm your sleep. I don't know if Ronaldo still does that, but he used to block the signal so he could get enough sleep," Soares said.

This rule is not only part of an effort to maintain focus and cohesion within the team, but also reflects the disciplined lifestyle and attention to detail required to maintain superstar Ronaldo's peak performance.
