Former Liverpool midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum is on the hunt for a new club after Al-Ettifaq confirmed his departure. The veteran Netherlands international will become a free agent this summer following the mutual termination of his contract in Dammam.
Cristiano Ronaldo endured a night of physical distress as he battled through stomach pains during Al-Nassr's narrow 1-0 victory over Al-Ettifaq in the Saudi Pro League. The Portuguese superstar was visibly struggling throughout the contest and vomited in the dressing room after being substituted late in the game.
Cristiano Ronaldo struck a note of defiance after Al-Nassr were forced to settle for a pulsating 2-2 draw against Al-Ettifaq, a result that brought their 10-match winning streak in the Saudi Pro League to an abrupt halt. Ronaldo was again among the goals, extending his astonishing career tally to 957, but it was former Liverpool midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum who ultimately shaped the contest, producing a superb brace to deny the league leaders maximum points.
