Supporters in Africa believe Cristiano Ronaldo will still struggle to earn playtime in the Saudi Pro League after he sealed a transfer move to Al-Nassr on Friday following his premature exit from Manchester United.
The 37-year-old Portuguese forward joined the Saudi Arabian outfit on a free transfer and will now link up with Cameroon international Vincent Aboubakar at the new club.
Ronaldo had returned to Man United from Juventus for a second stint but struggled to nail down a regular starting role under Erik ten Hag and African fans have taken to social media to suggest he will struggle at the club, with Aboubakar being tipped to start ahead of him.
The 30-year-old Aboubakar had a great outing in the World Cup finals in Qatar, scoring three goals for the Indomitable Lions and chipping in with one assist. He has so far notched three Saudi Pro League goals from 10 matches this season.
Meanwhile, another section of fans opined Nigeria forward Odion Ighalo, who features for Al Hilal, will beat Ronaldo to the Golden Boot. Ighalo has so far scored six league goals from 10 appearances.
