“Next Season, It Needs More..” – After Denying Al Nassr Exit Claims, Cristiano Ronaldo Makes Shock ‘Top 5’ Saudi League Claim

Cristiano Ronaldo has finally cemented himself in Saudi Arabia. Despite enduring tough times with Al Nassr, the player is settling in well. His arrival at the Middle Eastern club has brought significant fame and has put the country and the Saudi Pro League in the limelight. While the league may have money in the bank, it still lacks an overall personality.

The Saudi League is still far behind the level of Europe’s top five leagues. It still lacks the intensity of the likes of the Premier League, La Liga, and Seria A. However, according to Al Nassr skipper Ronaldo, all that is about to change.

Cristiano Ronaldo makes huge Saudi League claim

Ronaldo has played in three out of five leagues, including competitions in England, Spain, and Italy. While a rumor to play in the German league has been in the headlines, the player is currently enjoying soccer on the outskirts of the Middle East. But his new domestic competition lacks the charisma that the top 5 have.

However, according to CR7, all that is set to change as the Saudi Pro League gets more competitive. According to a Saudi Arabian source, he made a huge claim about the future of the league. “The Saudi League is becoming strong. It will be one of the top 5 leagues. Next season, it needs more stars and stadiums,” he said.

The 38-year-old reckons the league is running at a good pace, however, it still lacks infrastructure and big names. If things continue to move at this pace, the league will definitely become a major hotspot for top players in the upcoming years. In fact, according to Ronaldo, it will take over any spot in the top 5.

While the Portuguese superstar is confident about the future of the league, rumors about a potential exit continue to fly. However, it is being said that the striker has denied such claims and looks to stay put.

Ronaldo to stay put at Al Nassr despite exit rumors

According to reports in Spain, Ronaldo wants to leave Al Nassr after just six months. The former Madrid man looks unhappy with his stay so far after struggling a bit on the pitch. He is dissatisfied with the infrastructure in Saudi Arabia and believes it is not up to modern standards. This is badgering him to consider a return to Europe, and he is also open to exploring other options.

However, Ronaldo’s agency has denied these claims. His entourage has put all the rumors to bed as the five-time Ballon d’Or winner looks to stay in Arabia. He is obligated to stay at the club until 2025 and looks to stay till then. For now, the skipper will be looking to lead his side to domestic glory and help them clinch some silverware this season.

Yesterday, the striker helped his side win their league campaign against Al Shabab. Ronaldo got his name on the scoresheet as they won 3-2. They are three points behind Al Ittihad and will be looking to maintain their winning streak.
