Cristiano Ronaldo had an extraordinary year in the 2023-2024 Saudi Pro League for Al Nassr. The Portuguese legend was the top scorer in the tournament with 35 goals establishing a new single-season record.
However, the ending was tough for CR7 as he couldn’t hoist any trophy. Al Hilal destroyed his chances in the league and the King’s Cup, while Al Nassr suffered a shocking elimination against Al Ain in the AFC Champions League.
Considering this scenario, no one knew for sure if Cristiano wanted to stay in Saudi Arabia to fight against their biggest rival. It’s important to remember that, next season, Al Hilal will be stronger with a healthy Neymar.
So, amid all these big rumors about his future, the Portuguese legend went to social media and clarified the situation. The final decision has officially been made.
