Information has something to intrigue. Cristiano Ronaldo, a planetary star exiled in Saudi Arabia since January 2023, is said to be in the viewfinder of a large European club for an express return. No classic transfer, nor new challenge in the long term: the idea would be to enlist it for only a month, during a very specific tournament. This comeback, if confirmed, would have a particular flavor. Because it would be a return to the Premier League … in a club where he has never evolved.
According to several English media, it is Chelsea who studies the possibility of bringing Cristiano Ronaldo back in Europe, with the aim of strengthening the team for the FIFA club World Cup. The Blues, qualified for this special edition, would like to strike a big marketing and sports blow by enlisting the Portuguese legend for this only competition. An ultra short loan, but which would have a global echo. For CR7, it would be a return to English lawns after its passages to Manchester United, but above all a way to target a last large collective trophy.
Ronaldo, a last light before twilight?
Problem: Al-Nassr did not say his last word. The Saudi club also competes for this club World Cup, and obviously counts on its flagship player to hope to shine there. Let Ronaldo go, even a month, to strengthen a direct competitor seems improbable. But the recent elimination of the Saudi club in the semi-final of the Asian Champions League against Kawasaki front could rebound the cards. CR7, frustrated at not having won anything with Al-Nassr yet, could be seduced by this European parenthesis.
Anyway, this possible return attracts attention. At 40, Cristiano Ronaldo continues to arouse the interest of the big stages. Chelsea, who also awaits the return of João Félix, could offer him a final wink to the European elite. And CR7, true to his quest for trophies, would see the perfect opportunity to shine again under the spotlight. Case to follow.
