In the last several windows, the Saudi League has brought superstar signings like Neymar, Benzema, and others. However, none of them has made an impact like Al Nassr star Cristiano Ronaldo. Real Madrid star Nacho has also praised his former teammate. He has lauded him for opening the doors of the cash-rich league to the other star players.

As far as on-the-pitch is concerned, Nacho hopes to influence Los Blancos in the Spanish Super Cup final. On the other side, the Al Nassr will hope to win the title race this season over Al Hilal.

Real Madrid star makes a huge claim on the impact of Cristiano Ronaldo!

The Saudi League is currently the talk of town for good and bad reasons. Cristiano Ronaldo is the person who has brought the attention of the fans to the cash-rich league. What followed after the Portuguese forward was the Saudi clubs making huge signings that became the news in the European market. But Nacho feels that Cristiano Ronaldo deserves the praise for it. Ahead of the Spanish Super Cup final, speaking on the Saudi League, he said, “Cristiano Ronaldo influenced many players to come to Saudi Arabia and play here.” 

It is not the first time a Los Blancos star has praised the impact of the Al Nassr. In an earlier interview, Federico Valverde also pointed out the significant impact of Cristiano Ronaldo. The Real Madrid star midfielder has praised the progress the league has made in the last two years. He also pointed out that the Portuguese forward has made the cash-rich league an attractive watch.
