    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Ronaldo headed to the Middle East in January 2023 after cutting short his second spell at Man Utd, and has yet to win a trophy for Al-Nassr, although he does have an astonishing scoring record. In 67 games, he has scored 61 goals and registered 16 assists.

  • WHAT RONALDO SAID

    Ronaldo said to Portuguese channel NOW: "I don't know if I'll finish soon or in two or three years. But, possibly, it will be at Al Nassr. It's the team where I'm happy, where I'm good, where I feel good, both in the country and in the league. That's why, most likely I can finish my career at Al-Nassr. I'm very happy to play in the Arab league and I want to continue."
