Last January, Portugal superstar Cristiano Ronaldo joined the Saudi Arabian club Al Nasser. Superstar Cristiano Ronaldo left Manchester United following an interview given to the famous journalist and news anchor Piers Morgan.
In the interview, Ronaldo mentioned the differences of opinion with coach Erik ten Haag and the discomfort he faced at the club.
After that, Manchester United and Ronaldo parted ways. After leaving United, he signed with free agent Ronaldo Al Nasser.
There are those who still can’t accept Ronaldo’s move to the Middle East following the European chapters are over. But Al Nasr coach Rudy Garcia says that the player made a great move and that Brazilian legend Pele also made a similar move in his career.
Garcia’s statement pointed out that Pele joined the American club New York Cosmos in 1975 at the end of his career.
“I compare Cristiano Ronaldo’s move to Pele’s move towards the end of his career. Ronaldo went to Al Nasser, the Saudi league, while Pele went to the North American Soccer League.
In any case, Ronaldo’s arrival in Saudi will pave the way for the progress of football and other sports culture here. Cristiano’s position is more than just a player. He is the best player in the world,’ said Rudy Garcia.
Ronaldo has yet to compete since joining the Saudi Arabian club. Videos of the actor training in Alnaser were circulated on social media.
Al Nasser acquired the star by paying 200 million dollars. Ronaldo is currently performing well in Al Nasr.
Ronaldo has scored five goals in four matches so far. And Ronaldo, who completed 500 goals in league football at Al Nasser, scored more goals than Messi this year.
