What did Ronaldo say about the Saudi League?
The Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo, who is coming to Al-Nasr Club in a fictional deal, said that the Saudi Football League “will be among the five best leagues in the world, but it needs time, players and infrastructure.”
This is among the best player in the world 5 times after scoring the winning goal for victory, Tuesday, over Al-Shabab 3-2 in a public match in Riyadh within the Saudi League, in which Al-Alamy overturned its delay with two goals. “The Saudi League is improving, next year it will be better after, step by step. This league will be among the five best leagues in the world, but it needs time, players and infrastructure.”
And “Don” (38 years) continued in an interview with the Saudi Sports Company: “I think that this country has amazing capabilities and wonderful people, and the Dorsi will be wonderful in my opinion.”
Despite its nineteenth victory this season in 28 matches, Al-Nassr remained second, by three points, behind Al-Ittihad, who won Al-Batin 1-0.
Al-Ittihad also needs one victory in its last two matches to snatch the first title in the league since 2009, and send Ronaldo empty-handed in his first season with the capital team.
The former Real Madrid and Manchester United star also added: “Very happy. We played a great game. It was very difficult to come back from two goals down, but we remained confident until the end and scored three goals. I congratulate the whole team and the fans were great today. We are very happy”.
As Ronaldo, thanks to his imaginary contract with Al-Nasr Club, became the highest-paid athlete in the world in the year 2023, with an income of $ 136 million, ahead of Argentine Lionel Messi and French Kylian Mbappe, according to the annual “Forbes” magazine ranking published in early May.
And with a contract until the year 2025 with Al-Nasr, Ronaldo will receive an annual salary of $ 75 million, according to estimates by specialized American media, which also expects “additional marketing opportunities” in this country, which has also become its unofficial sports ambassador.
