Cristiano Ronaldo shifted his allegiance to Al Nassr in the 2022 winter transfer window. Since then, Ronaldo has been prolific for the Saudi club, cementing his world-class status with an AFC Champions League winners medal in his first season. However, When the club proposed a contract extension, it was rejected by the Portuguese. Now, a popular journalist has shed light on what Ronaldo plans to do in the future.

The striker’s global status has attracted millions of fans to the club. A club we’ve rarely heard of before has now turned into a favorite for many, all because of Ronaldo’s influence. However, as of now, the Saudi club has failed to extend its journey with the soccer star.

It will be a huge blow to the Knights of Najd if Ronaldo decides to run down his contract. The soccer star’s current deal runs until 2026 and there’s still time to pursue the Al Nassr captain to extend his stay in Riyadh.

A journalist took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to share the news about Ronaldo’s possible future. In the post, the reporter said, “Cristiano Ronaldo wants to continue with the Saudi club even after his retirement from football. Cristiano believes that victory (Al Nassr) changed his life and became his home, his family, his residence, and an integral part of his life, and it is difficult to leave this club.”

His playing style has changed, relying less on athleticism and more on intellect. By 2027, Cristiano Ronaldo will be close to 42.
