Cristiano Ronaldo’s Ex-Teammate Shockingly Snubs Multi-Million Reunion After Punching Him During Saudi Arabia Debut

PSG goalie Keylor Navas has been in the news recently. Not only did he punch the star striker from Al-Nassr during the game, but he also declined a chance of a reunion with a former teammate. Soccer is a huge world and there are always exciting and notable events going on. Nobody had any idea even till Aug- Sep last year that Cristiano Ronaldo will be playing in Saudi Arabia. The Portuguese star signed a five-year deal with the Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr. The deal will make him an unbelievable 200 million USD a year. However, the League is in full-on poaching mode as they are trying to sign every big player that is in the trade window or a free agent.

The teams are getting full backing from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The main aim they have is to achieve global fame for the Saudi Arabian League. They are targeting big names and offering them huge contracts. The biggest name they are hoping to sign after Ronaldo is, according to reports, PSG star Lionel Messi.
