Since his resounding arrival at Al-Nassr, Cristiano Ronaldo has continued to shine in Saudi Arabia. However, a new chapter could soon open for the five-time Ballon d’Or. But what is it really about? A crucial decision seems to be looming in the shadows, and the next few weeks could be decisive for the rest of his career.
An extension in sight for Ronaldo?
According to the Spanish newspaper AS, Al-Nassr sporting director Fernando Hierro is preparing an extension offer for Cristiano Ronaldo. A proposal which would aim to seal the future of the Portuguese star within the Saudi club, where he has become one of the leading figures in the local championship. The objective: to consolidate a winning partnership and dissuade European suitors from approaching the player.
In recent days, some rumors have mentioned a possible return of Ronaldo to Europe. According to these rumors, the player would consider returning to a major championship with a view to preparing for the 2026 World Cup. However, nothing seems confirmed yet. For Al-Nassr, keeping their star player would be a top priority.
Al-Nassr, a club ready to do anything for its star
Since his arrival, Ronaldo has attracted global attention to the Saudi championship, increasing its popularity and appeal. Aware of this influence, Al-Nassr does not intend to let go. The planned contract extension would also aim to strengthen the club’s position on the international scene.
If the proposal were to be accepted, CR7 would remain the main ambassador of an ambitious sporting and commercial project in Saudi Arabia. However, the suspense remains: will Ronaldo seize this opportunity or will he prefer to attempt a return to Europe to finish his career at the highest level?
