Cristiano Ronaldo is likely to renew his contract with Saudi professional league Alnasr. BBC Sport reported on the 26th (Korea time) 'Ronaldo is likely to sign a new contract with Alnasr' citing Saudi sources.
Portugal's captain, 40-year-old Ronaldo's contract was due to expire at the end of June, but sources say a two-year extension is almost final. Ronaldo posted on his social media shortly after Alnasr's final Saudi professional league match last month that `this chapter is over" posted an indication of a breakup.
Gianni Infantino, president of FIFA, also mentioned the possibility of Ronaldo moving to a team that can participate in the Club World Cup shortly after Alnasr's failure to participate in the Club World Cup. Ronaldo, however, `I got offers from the participating teams, but I turned them all down" expressed its position, suggesting the possibility of remaining.
The BBC added that Ronaldo from Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus, who led Portugal to the European Nations League title this summer, appears to have decided to stay in Saudi Arabia and is considering investing in his sport in Saudi Arabia. He also asked Ronaldo's representative to clarify his position on renewing the contract. Ronaldo joined Alnasr shortly after the end of his contract with Manchester United in 2023, setting a remarkable record of 99 goals in 111 games. Last season, he also scored 35 goals in 41 games and received the Golden Boot, the top scorer in the league.
Alnasr, meanwhile, has terminated his contract with Italian coach Stefano Pioli. Fioli, a former AC Milan head coach, finished third in the Saudi first division last season, 13 points behind the winner Al-Etihad. Pioli will lead his former team Fiorentina. On the news of Fioli's separation, Ronaldo posted on his SNS, "Thank you for everything." left a message.
