Following the Qatar 2022 World Cup, the first season for Cristiano Ronaldo with Al Nassr was a total dissapointment. However, at the 2023 Arab Club Champions Cup, the Portuguese player is close of achieving glory for millions of fans at Saudi Arabia.

It’s important to remember that Cristiano hasn’t been able to lift a trophy there. Not so long ago, 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. That might suddenly change.

The new season has started and Cristiano Ronaldo could deliver one of the most prestigious titles to Al Nassr. In a moment where everything he does is compared with Lionel Messi at MLS, the legend has been epic.
