Portugal icon Cristiano Ronaldo indicated on Monday that he could leave Al-Nassr after declaring the ‘chapter is over’ hours after the Saudi Pro League finished. Ronaldo, 40, joined Al-Nassr in 2022 from Manchester United and his contract in Saudi Arabia ends this June.. A special transfer window runs from June 1-10 to allow the 32 clubs involved in the Club World Cup to sign players. The iconic goalscorer is said to be in talks with a few clubs over a switch ahead of the start of the Club World Cup.
Al-Nassr missed the elite Asian Champions League title, losing to Japan’s Kawasaki Frontale in April’s semi-finals, and were third in the Saudi Pro League. Ronaldo ended as the league’s top goal scorer this season on 25. In the match against Al Fateh, Ronaldo netted his 99th goal in 105 appearances for Al Nassr, but his team fell short in a 3-2 defeat.
Last year, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner said he could end his career with Al-Nassr.
The Portuguese star, who has scored 937 official goals in his career (801 at club level), could be on the move. Reports last week suggested he’s received a lucrative offer from an unnamed Brazilian club, offering him a chance to feature in the upcoming Club World Cup.
