Cristiano Ronaldo set to sign new two-year contract at Al-Nassr

Cristiano Ronaldo is close to agreeing to a new two-year deal with Saudi Pro League club, Al-Nassr. The Portugal captain’s current contract was set to expire at the end of June, leading to speculation about his departure. Ronaldo had previously hinted at leaving with a social media post stating “the chapter is over” after the season’s final game. But the five-time Ballon dOr winner is now set to stay in Saudi Arabia. Since joining Al-Nassr in December 2022, Ronaldo has scored 99 goals in 111 appearances, including 35 last season to win the SPL Golden Boot. The forward joined Al-Nassr in December 2022 as a free agent after leaving Manchester United following a controversial interview in which he criticised the Premier League club. Al-Nassr are currently without a manager after parting company with Stefano Pioli on Wednesday. Former AC Milan and Inter boss Pioli, who was appointed in September, led Al-Nassr to a third-place finish in the SPL last season, 13 points behind champions Al-Ittihad.  The post Cristiano Ronaldo set to sign new two-year contractatAl-Nassr appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
