After the Qatar 2022 World Cup, Cristiano Ronaldo had a very disappointing first season with Al Nassr. Now, the Portuguese player is looking for redemption in a new campaign at Saudi Arabia.
It was an unexpected situation for Cristiano as he couldn’t hoist any trophy at all. Al Nassr finished second in the Saudi Pro League behind Al Ittihad and had early exits in other tournaments such as the King Cup and the Saudi Super Cup.
However, just a few weeks ago, Cristiano Ronaldo led Al Nassr to conquer the 2023 Arab Club Champions Cup and is having a fantastic start at the league. It all comes in a moment where everything he does is meticulously compared with Lionel Messi at MLS.
