Cristiano Ronaldo took a big shot at Ligue 1 by claiming the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/saudi-pro-league">Saudi Pro League</a> was a much better competition. The legend from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/portugal">Portugal</a> signed with Al Nassr after a very disappointing <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/qatar-2022">Qatar 2022 World Cup</a> and became the top scorer in the world.



“The level right now? To be honest? I think the Saudi league is not worse than France’s league in my opinion. And French league I think it’s…you have two, three teams with a good level. In Saudi now I think it’s more competitive.”



Now, the coach of Lille, Paulo Fonseca, has joined the hottest debate in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/soccer">soccer</a> and he isn’t happy at all with the situation. This was his answer for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a>. 



“I don’t think it’s good what he said. I don’t want to make a comparison. If he feels happy in Saudi Arabia, I’m happy for him. There are things that don’t deserve to be answered. I’m wasting my time answering them. These statements are part of it. I think intelligent people will understand why he made this statement.”



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240125_BUS_100187_cristianoronaldo-1-1024x576_d8b064dd.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Cristiano Ronaldo smiling" class="wp-image-63814" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Cristiano Ronaldo sparked a big controversy between Ligue 1 and Saudi Pro League (Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Ligue 1 coaches are angry at Cristiano Ronaldo</h2>



A few days ago, Eric Roy, the coach of Stade Brestois 29, challenged Cristiano Ronaldo to leave Saudi Arabia and join any squad in France. It all happened after a match against Trelissac in the French Cup.







“I invite him to come here and play on the field today. I don’t know if you would have liked it. It’s not that I disagree with him, but Cristiano has never played in Ligue 1. How can he have a reference point? He would have to have played here.”


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20240120#BUS#99144"></div>


However, CR7 doubled down on his comments during a recent interview for Record in Portugal. “It’s difficult to score goals, whether in Saudi Arabia, Italy, Spain or Portugal. A goal is a goal. In a way, I feel even prouder to have outscored Haaland, Mbappe, and Kane.”

After a very disappointing <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/qatar-2022">Qatar 2022 World Cup</a> with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/portugal">Portugal</a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> made a big decision for the future of his family. A huge contract offer came from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/al-nassr">Al Nassr</a> and the legend chose to embark in a new adventure going to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/saudi-arabia">Saudi Arabia</a>.



Of course, 2023 was sensational for CR7 as he became the top scorer in the world with 54 goals. That amount surpassed other stars such as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/erling-haaland">Erling Haaland</a>, Harry Kane and Kylian Mbappe.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231021#BUS#78533"></div>


However, it’s important to remember that the big change was also for his sons and, of course, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/georgina-rodriguez-sends-special-message-to-antonela-roccuzzo-amid-lionel-messi-and-cristiano-ronaldo-rivalry-20230908-BUS-59759.html">Georgina Rodriguez</a>. That’s why, Cristiano Ronaldo Jr is trying to fulfill his dream playing for the youth team at Al Nassr. 



<h2>Video: Cristiano Ronaldo Jr scores great goal for Al Nassr</h2>



Cristiano Ronaldo Jr is determined to follow his father’s path in soccer as the young player keeps shining with Al Nassr U13 team. The club posted on X another extraordinary goal of CR7’s son who is just 13-years old. The similarities are remarkable. 







In the video, Cristiano’s son heads the ball after a corner kick outjumping the goalkeeper with an impressive leap. The post was accompanied by this message: “Like father, like son.”

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> shocked the world with a very controversial answer in Dubai when he was asked about the level of the Saudi Pro League. No one expected the legend from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/portugal">Portugal</a> would take a shot at <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ligue-1">Ligue 1</a>.



“The level right now? To be honest? I think the Saudi league is not worse than France’s league in my opinion. And French league I think it’s…you have two, three teams with a good level. In Saudi now I think it’s more competitive.”



Those words surprised the audience at the United Arab Emirates as CR7 got a massive round of applause for praising the growth of the Arab region. After his first full year in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/saudi-arabia">Saudi Arabia</a>, Cristiano is totally convinced.



“They can say whatever they want. It’s just my opinion and I’ve played there one year so I know what I’m talking about. I think right now we’re better than France’s league. We’ll still improve.”



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240120_BUS_99144_cristianoronaldo-1024x576_0c8f4ad2.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="" class="wp-image-98705" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/cristianoronaldo-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/cristianoronaldo-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/cristianoronaldo-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/cristianoronaldo-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/cristianoronaldo.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Cristiano Ronaldo believes Saudi Pro League is better than Ligue 1 (Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Sadio Mane defends Cristiano Ronaldo and Saudi Pro League</h2>



As a consequence of those words, Ligue 1 responded on social media by posting many pictures of Lionel Messi with his opinion about the French competition during a past interview with France Football.







“It’s a much more physical championship than La Liga (Spain). The teams seem more physical, and the matches are tough. There’s very little space; they don’t give you much room. The players are very strong.”


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231021#BUS#78533"></div>


However, Sadio Mane, who is currently playing for Al Nassr, defended Cristiano’s take. It’s important to remember the star from Senegal has experience in the Premier League, the Bundesliga and also in Ligue 1 as part of Metz in 2012.



“Fortunately, I can say the Saudi league is a very good league and watched by everybody in the world. So, for me, as long as I’m doing my best and I’m enjoying myself every single minute, that’s more important. The rest, for me, doesn’t matter.”

After the Qatar 2022 World Cup, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> was ready to transform the future of soccer when he signed with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/al-nassr">Al Nassr</a>. That move represented a clear message for other players to consider <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/saudi-arabia">Saudi Arabia</a> as an attractive destination.



Though contract offers started to be massive, it all came with the promise of developing Saudi Pro League and its conditions. At first, the success seemed real with the arrival of star like <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/neymar">Neymar</a>, Sadio Mane and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/karim-benzema">Karim Benzema</a>. 



However, especially in the last few weeks, players have been complaining of what’s happening in that country. For example, Jordan Henderson left as soon as possible and signed with Ajax to return to Europe. 



Now, Aymeric Laporte has joined all those voices during an exclusive interview with Diario AS. “It’s a big change compared to Europe, but in the end, it’s all adaptation. They haven’t made it too easy for us. In fact, there are many players who are dissatisfied.”



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240120_BUS_99115_cristianoronaldo-1-1024x576_036a863e.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Cristiano Ronaldo smiling" class="wp-image-63814" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Cristiano Ronaldo was the top scorer of 2023 worldwide playing in Saudi Arabia (Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Aymeric Laporte could leave the Saudi Arabia</h2>



Despite the complaints from various players, Aymeric Laporte does not intend to give up on his new adventure in Saudi Arabia with a three-year contract and over 20 million per season. However, if things doesn’t change, the defender might follow Jordan Henderson. 







“So far, I haven’t considered it, but if I’m disappointed in such a short time, you wonder what to do. That moment hasn’t come yet, but looking ahead, it could be if that dynamic continues.”


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231021#BUS#78533"></div>


Furthermore, in a very surprising statement, Laporte acknowledged that many teams in Saudi Arabia lack seriousness to fulfill all the things they promised to the players.



“For them, life… they take everything lightly. The ultimatum you might give them doesn’t matter to them. I mean, they really do their own thing. You negotiate one thing and then they don’t accept it after signing it. They argue with you. However, what they take away from you in that aspect, they give it to you in other aspects.”



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240120_BUS_99115_jordanhenderson-1024x576_ad3302b3.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="" class="wp-image-96379" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/jordanhenderson-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/jordanhenderson-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/jordanhenderson-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/jordanhenderson-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/jordanhenderson.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Jordan Henderson left Saudi Arabia and signed with Ajax (Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>



<h2>What’s happening with star players in Saudi Arabia?</h2>



According to Aymeric Laporte’s words, the big problem is that the executives in Saudi Arabia are not doing enough to protect players who arrived as stars from various leagues in Europe.



“Yes, they take care of us, but not enough for my liking. I mean, in Europe, they pay you a good salary, but they take care of you much more. I speak from my own experience and I don’t know about others. From my perspective, what I’ve seen is that they try to bring you, but then there’s the day-to-day, and in that regard, it’s different.”


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230830#BUS#54611"></div>


Laporte wants to give the benefit of the doubt to the Saudi Pro League, considering that they had never received players of this caliber before. Perhaps, with a little time, things can change for everyone.



“Every day we’re working on it, negotiating, so to speak, and let’s see if it improves a little because this is something new for them as well, having European players with a long career. Perhaps they are not used to this, and they have to adapt to a bit more seriousness.”

Cristiano Ronaldo had a sensational 2023 in Saudi Arabia with Al Nassr. The Portuguese legend was the top scorer of the year worldwide with 54 goals surpassing big names such as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/erling-haaland">Erling Haaland</a>, Kylian Mbappe or <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a>.



Though there were no titles to show for, the individual performances of CR7 were just amazing. However, the star was totally ignored in prestigious award ceremonies such as the Ballon d’Or or The Best.



Now, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> had another disappointment by not winning the award for Best Footballer of the Year in Asia. The distinction, for a seventh consecutive time, went to Son Heung-min of Tottenham.



In this scenario, the UEFA Euro 2024 seems to be the last opportunity for Cristiano if he wants to reappear in any of these ceremonies. Although the star of Al Nassr has said that it’s not something he cares about, a triumph with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/portugal">Portugal</a> could bring him back into the spotlight.

<h2>Son Heung-min beats Cristiano Ronaldo as Best Footballer in Asia</h2>



Son Heung-min won the 2023 Best Footballer in Asia award with 22.9% of the votes. The second place went to Kim Min-jae of Bayern Munich (19.5%), while Cristiano Ronaldo finished third with 17.06%. 







The big question that many CR7 fans are asking is what more the star has to do to receive some recognition. Despite being 38 years old, the Portuguese has been dominant as the world’s top goal scorer in 2023.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231021#BUS#78533"></div>


<h2>How many goals has Cristiano Ronaldo scored in his career?</h2>



Cristiano Ronaldo&nbsp;has scored&nbsp;872 goals&nbsp;in his professional career. Even with age as a key factor, the Portuguese star has confirmed he wants to reach a 1000 goals.



In January, Ronaldo’s moment stopped because of the winter break in the Saudi Pro League. By the way, there’s a big friendly match on the horizon against Inter Miami and Lionel Messi. The date will be February 1.

Moreover, throughout the match, everyone in Riyadh repeatedly chanted the name of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> in moments filled with nostalgia because of the extraordinary years he had with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a>.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/karim-benzema">Karim Benzema</a> decided to follow the path laid out by <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> signing with Al Ittihad in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/saudi-arabia">Saudi Arabia</a>. The French striker left Real Madrid to receive a big contract valid until 2026 that, according to several reports, could surpass $100 million per season.



However, the first months for Benzema have been very disappointing. Despite scoring 9 goals, his team is already out of the title race in the Saudi Pro League. They’re 25 points behind leaders, Al Hilal, with a full semester left.



As if this were not enough, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/al-ittihad">Al Ittihad</a> suffered another setback a few weeks ago when they were eliminated in the second round of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/video-kyle-walker-felipe-melo-got-into-a-fight-after-club-world-cup-final-20231222-BUS-93876.html">FIFA Club World Cup</a> by Al Ahly. Even with the arrival of a renowned coach like Marcelo Gallardo, things simply are not working out.



Now, in a new scandal, Karim Benzema has been excluded from his team’s preseason during the winter break. As a result, rumors have erupted about his future.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240114_BUS_97857_karimbenzema_alittihad-1024x576_380a4310.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="" class="wp-image-97867" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/karimbenzema_alittihad-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/karimbenzema_alittihad-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/karimbenzema_alittihad-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/karimbenzema_alittihad-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/karimbenzema_alittihad.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Karim Benzema is in huge trouble at Saudi Arabia (Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Will Karim Benzema leave Al Ittihad?</h2>



Marcelo Gallardo excluded Karim Benzema from Al-Ittihad’s preseason for being absent in many training sessions. After the winter break, a short period of preparation starts for the club on Monday in the United Arab Emirates. However, the French striker wasn’t called at Dubai. 







Due to those repeated absences, Benzema has been officially removed from the squad list. So far, Karim has missed six consecutive practices with Al Ittihad and Gallardo just had enough of it.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20240112#BUS#97458"></div>


According to various reports, Karim Benzema is not comfortable in Saudi Arabia and the relationship with his teammates is not the best. After being the star of Real Madrid, the forward found himself in a completely different scenario. 



Economically, it’s a success. However, in terms of sports and quality of life, it’s a disappointment for his track record. Now, by not reporting to the club’s facilities on January 12th, a new scandal has emerged. 


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230818#BUS#48618"></div>


<h2>Where is Karim Benzema?</h2>



Diario MARCA informed today that Karim Benzema is ‘trapped’ in Mauritius due to a cyclone and that is why he hasn’t been able to arrive in Saudi Arabia yet. Nevertheless, no one knows for sure if Marcelo Gallardo will change his mind with this version.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/saudi-pro-league">Saudi Pro League</a> has become one of the most attractive tournaments in the world due to the impressive salaries that teams have offered in recent months. Since <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> paved the way with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/al-nassr">Al Nassr</a>, nothing has been the same.



Karim Benzema signed with Al Ittihad, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/neymar">Neymar</a> became the new star of Al Hilal, and Sadio Mane left Bayern Munich to be a teammate of CR7. Faced with the exorbitant amounts of money, the phenomenon seems to continue growing.



However, the social aspect of the new adventure has started to wear down several players who wonder if money is above the quality of life. In recent weeks, without apparent reason, Benzema disappeared and even deleted his social media accounts before the winter break.



Now, an English star might just had enough of the country and could be ready to forfeit his contract. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240106_BUS_96372_cristianoronaldo-1-1024x576_996b3849.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Cristiano Ronaldo smiling" class="wp-image-63814" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Cristiano Ronaldo was the key factor to convince many player of joining the Saudi Pro League (Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Jordan Henderson is tired of Saudi Arabia</h2>



According to a report from the Daily Mail, Jordan Henderson wants to leave the Saudi Pro League even with a spectacular salary. His intention is to return to the Premier League.







Nevertheless, the English midfielder would have to forfeit millions as he’s winning almost $900k per week. Henderson is 33 years old and, despite being a key player at Liverpool, last summer he decided to sign with Al Etiffaq for three seasons.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231021#BUS#78533"></div>


“Henderson’s problems have been compounded by Al Ettifaq’s poor form, which has seen manager&nbsp;Steven Gerrard&nbsp;come under pressure from the owners following a dreadful run that has seen his side fail to win in eight matches stretching back to November.”



<h2>Jordan Henderson will try to return to the Premier League</h2>



Right now, Al Etiffaq are one of the biggest disappointments of the Saudi Pro League in eight place of the standings. They’re already 28 points behind Al Hilal with no chance at the title. 



The information points out Jordan Henderson is really struggling with the lifestyle in Saudi Arabia. He would even take a massive pay cut in order to play with a contender in the Premier League.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230830#BUS#54611"></div>


It’s important to remember that Saudi Arabia is also very attractive for many players because of the tax policy. However, to have that privilege, Henderson has to stay there at least two years. If he leaves, that bill would be enormous.

After the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/qatar-2022">Qatar 2022 World Cup</a>, Cristiano Ronaldo decided to sign for Al Nassr and his first full year in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/saudi-arabia">Saudi Arabia</a> has been spectacular. The Portuguese finished 2023 as the top scorer in the world with 54 goals surpassing stars such as Kylian Mbappe, Harry Kane and Erling Haaland.



Right now, Al Nassr have already qualified for the Round of 16 in the AFC Champions League and they’re in second place at the Saudi Pro League just behind Al Hilal.



Of course, the last months have been very surprising for millions of soccer fans as two veterans such as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a> still dominated. No one expected that with young stars emerging.



However, the question about retirement is inevitable considering age as a key factor. At least for the moment, Cristiano wanted to reassure his fans with a message full of optimism.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20231231_BUS_95253_cristianoronaldo-1-1024x576_ddf2bd2a.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Cristiano Ronaldo smiling" class="wp-image-63814" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/cristianoronaldo-1.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Cristiano Ronaldo with Al Nassr (Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Cristiano Ronaldo confirms he is not ready to retire</h2>



This Saturday, Cristiano Ronaldo scored another goal in Al Nassr’s 4-1 victory over Al Taawon in the Saudi Pro League. That’s why, as the best scorer in the world, the legend had a special message about his future. 







The Portuguese went to his Instagram account and posted many photos of the game including one in which he is celebrating his last goal of 2023. “I’ll say when it’s finished! Thanks, team.”


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231230#BUS#95200"></div>


Cristiano Ronaldo is 38-years old, but that statement confirms retirement isn’t an option at all. In 2024, CR7 will have a big challenge with Portugal trying to win the UEFA Euro. A trophy with great individual performances at Germany could make him a candidate to a surprising Ballon d’Or.

<h2>How many goals has Cristiano Ronaldo scored in his career?</h2>



After the game against Al Taawon, Cristiano Ronaldo&nbsp;has officially scored&nbsp;873 goals&nbsp;in his professional career. The Portuguese star has already revealed there’s a number in sight for him: 1000 goals.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231224#BUS#94177"></div>


“It’s going to be quite challenging, but it’s about assessing my mental state and motivation. If, physically, my legs treat me as well as I treat them…we’ll see. It’s a step-by-step process. Before reaching 1 000, you have to reach 900 first. I believe I’ll achieve it.”

Cristiano Ronaldo took a huge risk when he decided to play in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/saudi-arabia" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Saudi Arabia</a> after the&nbsp;<a style="font-weight: bold" href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/qatar-2022" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Qatar 2022 World Cup</a>. However, almost a year later, his performances have been tremendous with Al Nassr.



In fact, the Portuguese legend set the stage for many stars to play in that country. Neymar, Karim Benzema, Sadio Mane or Yassine Bounou are some of the names which saw CR7 as a leading figure in a soccer revolution.



Of course, the big question for&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> is if retirement is looming. The legend is 38-years old but, alongside <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a>&nbsp;in the MLS, he is still proving age is not an obstacle.



Right now, Al Nassr are in second place of the Saudi Pro League just behind Al Hilal and they’ve already clinched a ticket to the Round of 16 in the AFC Champions League.

<h2>Roberto Martinez reveals the next milestone for Cristiano Ronaldo</h2>



During an interview with Fredrik Ljungberg, the coach of Portugal’s national team, Roberto Martinez, explained that Cristiano Ronaldo has a massive soccer record in sight. That race could extend his already illustrious career.







“He was very close to the 200 international caps. Something that no one has done before. The conversation with him was a private conversation, but I can disclose one thing he said. I asked him: ‘Look, having 200 international caps interests you or not?’ He said: ‘250 interests me’.”

Cristiano Ronaldo&nbsp;has scored&nbsp;872 goals&nbsp;in his professional career. A few months ago, even with age as a key factor, the Portuguese star revealed there’s another challenge for him: 1000 goals.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/neymar">Neymar</a> is living one of the worst moment of his career after another devastating knee injury during the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. The star from Brazil will be out at least eight months and won’t participate in the 2024 Copa America.



It was a massive blow for Ney just at the beginning of a new adventure with Al Hilal in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/saudi-arabia">Saudi Arabia</a>. Though he is only 31-years old, he decided to follow the path of other names such as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> and Karim Benzema. 



Furthermore, even while being off the field, Neymar has been the constant target of attacks on social media. Now, after a big tragedy engulfed <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brazil">Brazil</a>, the star of that country sent an emotional message.



“To the haters, you who spread hate. To those who know it everything, the owners of the truth, the saints who never make mistakes, congratulations, you have created one more victim.”



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20231224_BUS_94143_neymar-1-1024x576_7ea64261.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="" class="wp-image-93262" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/12/neymar-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/12/neymar-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/12/neymar-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/12/neymar-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/12/neymar-1.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Neymar was devastated by another tragedy in Brazil (Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Why did Neymar post that message on social media?</h2>



Neymar published that emotional message after the death of a 22-year-old woman who fell victim to a rumor that went viral on the internet, falsely identifying her as the alleged lover of Brazilian comedian, Whindersson Nunes. The Civil Police recorded the case as a possible suicide.







“The discourse on the Internet about respecting others does not exist! Real hate for all those people who hide behind internet profiles to speak ill of others. Wanting to be the first to report news can end someone’s life. Not everyone is mentally strong!”


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231220#BUS#93259"></div>


Neymar reminded mass media the responsibility of not spreading fake news to avoid such tragedies. “Various gossip websites, TV networks, and all kinds of media outlets have to be very careful with what you post or say.”

Neymar had a very disappointing <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/qatar-2022" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Qatar 2022 World Cup</a> with Brazil and that’s why the 2024 Copa America was the first step looking for redemption with the national team. However, many wondered if, for that purpose, the star made the right choice leaving Europe to play in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/saudi-arabia" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Saudi Arabia</a> with Al Hilal.



Of course, Neymar chose that country because the offer was just massive. A two-year contract to leave PSG receiving $100 million for each season played in the Saudi Pro League. 



Though the MLS could have been another option to reunite with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a>, Ney was part of a domino effect produced by <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a>. Other big names like Karim Benzema or Sadio Mane followed that path.



However, last October, Neymar suffered a severe injury during a match against Uruguay as part of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. In that moment, the Brazilian Football Confederation announced he would be out for six to eight months due to a ligament and meniscus tear in his left knee.

<h2>Neymar will miss the 2024 Copa America with Brazil</h2>



Despite the initial diagnosis indicating that Neymar would miss the rest of the season with Al Hilal, there were still hopes that the star could recover in time for the upcoming summer and participate in the Copa America.






<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230830#BUS#54611"></div>


The eight-month recovery period would precisely conclude in June, the same date when the tournament begins. On this occasion, it will be held in many cities across the United States.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230906#BUS#58330"></div>


However, Neymar’s dream has come to an end after the doctor of the Brazilian national team, Rodrigo Lasmar, confirmed that the star has no chance of fully recovering in time for the tournament.



“It’s too early. We need to be patient. Talking about a comeback before nine months is premature. This is a worldwide concept for ligament recovery. It is very important to take the biological time, the time the body takes to incorporate that ligament. The expectation is that after this time, he will be recovered at a high level.”

<h2>Neymar is devastated with injury update</h2>



Through his Instagram account, Neymar posted several videos about the beginning of his recovery process. The player acknowledged that it has been one of the most challenging stages of his life, but he is convinced that he will come back stronger. “1 month that felt like 10 years. But all this suffering will be worth it.”

The challenge for Neymar will be to take care of himself and be patient, keeping in mind his great wish to fulfill with the Brazilian national team: the 2026 World Cup. The player will be 34-years old in what will be his last chance to bring the most significant joy to his country.

The contract of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a> with PSG expires in June 2024 and he could be ready to leave <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/france">France</a>. As one of the best players in the world, there will be massive offers and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a> would have an advantage in the race to sign him.



However, in a shocking turn of events, an intriguing suitor might appear to convince Mbappe that his future could be somewhere else. Kylian is 24-years old and a huge deal from Saudi Arabia would make him seriously reconsider his future.



Right now,&nbsp;Kylian Mbappe&nbsp;is still under contract with the French club. That’s why, if&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/psg" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PSG</a>&nbsp;don’t want to let him go for free, they have to sell him now. Just imagine if he joins players like <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a>, Karim Benzema or Neymar. Considering this scenario, a few months ago, Nasser Al-Khelaifi made clear Paris Saint-Germain’s stance on the matter.



“Our position is very clear. I’m not going to repeat it. If he wants to stay, he stays. But, he has to extend his contract.&nbsp;We can’t let him leave for free and that’s what he promised to the club.&nbsp;If he changes his mind, it’s not my problem.”

<h2>Kylian Mbappe could play in Saudi Arabia</h2>



During an interview with Sky Sports, the Saudi Pro League Director of Football, Michael Emenalo, talked about the possibility of making a push for Kylian Mbapppe.







“It’s an open conversation, but we don’t know what he wants to do. Our position is very clear. Any of these players know where we are. If there’s any interest in being part of what we are trying to build now or for the future, you can’t turn down an opportunity to see if Mbappe can join us. Kylian is someone I love as a player.”


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230706#BUS#24497"></div>


<h2>Will Kylian Mbappe play in Saudi Arabia?</h2>



It’s important to remember that, starting January 1, 2024, Kylian Mbappe is free to negotiate with any club worldwide. Although the tradition and winning power of Real Madrid seem like the ideal option, the spectacular amount of money he would receive in Saudi Arabia could tempt him to try his luck in that country. Emenalo admitted they’ve already made a first try last summer.



“It’s never close if it’s not done. If it’s not done, it’s a huge chasm. I can’t say how deep the conversation went, but there was an express interest that if he was ready to come, there was a club ready to make space for him.”

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/thomas-muller">Thomas Müller</a> is a legend of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bayern-munich">Bayern Munich</a>, but his time with the club could be coming to an end. The forward’s contract expires in the summer of 2024 and, at the moment, there is no clear picture regarding his future in Germany.



Müller has won it all with Bayern: 2 Champions Leagues, 2 FIFA Club World Cups, 2 UEFA Super Cups, 12 Bundesliga and 6 DFB-Pokal. He is 34-years old and that’s why this negotiation is crucial for what should be the final big contract of his career.



Of course, Saudi Arabia has emerged as huge suitor for such a tremendous player like Müller. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> is shining there with Al Nassr and other stars like Karim Benzema and Neymar followed his steps.



Even a few days ago, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a> admitted the Saudi Pro League was very interesting for him after leaving PSG. However, in the end, the Argentine legend signed with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/inter-miami">Inter Miami</a> in the MLS.

<h2>Will Thomas Müller leave Bayern Munich?</h2>



During an interview with Julien Wolff of WELT, Thomas Müller answered the big question about his future at Bayern Munich. As he is set to become a free agent in 2024, he could start negotiating with any team on January 1. 







Though the Saudi Pro League has made public the interest to sign Müller, the star wants to stay at home. “Mutual bond between Bayern and me is enormous. We will have talks. Let’s see what happens”.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230906#BUS#58330"></div>


<h2>Saudi Arabia might convince Thomas Müller</h2>



A few weeks ago, Carlo Nohra, the Director of Operations in the Saudi Pro League, admitted they are really interested in signing Thomas Müller as a free agent when his contract with Bayern Munich expires in 2024. 



“Will Thomas Müller come to Arabia? Free agent in 2024? Why not? There is absolutely no reason why anyone wouldn’t want to join our teams. We welcome anyone who can enhance the value and quality of our league.”
