Friday, May 30, 2025 - Superstar footballer, Cristiano Ronaldo's exit from Al-Nassr is reportedly set to be announced today.
Recall that Ronaldo hinted at his exit from the club on
Monday as he told his social media followers that 'this chapter is over,'
appearing to hint at an exit.
'This chapter is over. The story? Still being written.
Grateful to all,' Ronaldo wrote on his X account after Al-Nassr finished third
in the league.
Ronaldo's next steps are unclear, but it has
been speculated that he could land in the MLS, Brazil, Turkey,
at Sporting Lisbon, or elsewhere in Saudi Arabia.
He is said to have been close to agreeing on terms on a new
£ 167 million-per-year deal with Al-Nassr before he made a U-turn.
During his time in the Middle East, Ronaldo banged in 99
goals for Al-Nassr.
Now, Spanish outlet Marca reports that Ronaldo's departure
will be confirmed imminently in a press conference held by the club.
Meanwhile, talkSPORT claims that Al-Nassr wish to cast their
net into the Premier League and fish out a certain Luis Diaz.
Liverpool star Diaz, whose contract expires in 2027, is
reported to be their top target.
Ronaldo, 40, is determined to reach 1,000 senior career
goals, a total which may still require two or three seasons of regular scoring
to smash as he currently has 936.
There is speculation that he could join Al-Nassr's Saudi
rivals Al-Hilal, who will be participating in the revamped Club World Cup.
Last week, FIFA president Gianni Infantino sent tongues
wagging when he claimed that Ronaldo could play at the revamped competition
this summer - despite Al-Nassr not qualifying.
'Ronaldo might play for one of the teams as well at the Club
World Cup,' Infantino said. 'There are discussions.'
'There are discussions with some clubs, so if any club is
watching and is interested in hiring Ronaldo for the Club World Cup… who knows,
who knows.'
