It has been a trophyless season for Cristiano Ronaldo and Co. In the last two years, the only trophy won by Luis Castro’s team was the Arab Champions Cup. This is considered a friendly tournament by many. As such, it has become evident that Al Nassr’s squad can be improved. With David Ospina’s impending departure, the goalkeeper is one position that needs urgent attention. According to reports by Hernán Castillo, the mighty Ronaldo is hurt after losing the Champions League final and the Saudi side is targeting a World Cup winner who once preferred Messi in a popular debate.

Of course, the Knights of Najd want to reinforce the team with big names. One such priority big name is Emiliano Martinez. As per the report, the inquiries have begun. It remains to be seen if Dibu is keen on a switch to Saudi. After all, he is coming off a historic season with Aston Villa after finishing 4th. The signing of Emi will generate a buzz among Cristiano Ronaldo fans. That’s because internet sensation IShowSpeed and Martinez had a conversation regarding the ‘GOAT’. While Speed said, “Cristiano is for life“, Martinez replied, “No chance.” As per the Argentine shot-stopper, his countryman Messi is the best ever!

The signing of Martinez is not a guarantee, though. Aston Villa is set to play in the UEFA Champions League next season, an opportunity that Al Nassr can’t offer. Hence, there is a realistic chance that Dibu Martinez could snub Cristiano Ronaldo’s side. Fortunately, Al Nassr has plenty of alternatives lined up.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr keen on Serie A veteran

The latest story is that Al Nassr is interested in signing Juventus’ goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny. Szczesny was a teammate of Cristiano Ronaldo during the latter’s stint at Juventus. Currently, the Polish star is not a man in demand at Turin. They’re said to be closing in on a deal to bring Michel Di Gregorio to the club. Moreover, there is also a possibility of a contract extension for Mattia Perin. Hence, at 34, a move to Saudi and a reunion with CR7 might be appealing for Szczesny.

The Knights of Najd have also been linked with Manchester City star Ederson. The emergence of Stefan Ortega in major games means that Pep Guardiola’s side could now cope without their Brazilian goalkeeper. Moreover, having won everything to win at the Etihad, Ederson might be open to a new challenge. In terms of challenge, it doesn’t get bigger than helping Al Nassr overcome the rampant Al Hilal next season.
