Some bonds are stronger than just contracts in soccer. It’s the connection between one of the best players and one of the best clubs in the world. Even though Cristiano Ronaldo left Real Madrid in 2018, the club still seems to retain his influence in some way or another. This time it’s the kits that Real Madrid players had worn, which seem to be inspired by their icon’s Al Nassr colors. Interestingly, no other player gets as much appreciation as Cristiano Ronaldo for his training.

What better way to turn that appreciation into a core memory? Real Madrid’s new training kits bear a striking resemblance to Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr jersey, as highlighted in a recent video that’s gone viral. But it’s uncertain whether Al Nassr played a role in inspiring this, leaving the true origin open to question. However, Carlo Ancelotti’s men were seen having a good time while training with the kit.

The jersey looks similar, with the color of the t-shirt being yellow and the sleeves being full and blue. The jersey also had the Fly Emirates symbol, which is the official sponsor of the club- on the front and an Adidas logo on the back.

Meanwhile, out of the players taking part in the training, only Luka Modric could have had the nostalgia of playing with the Portuguese captain. Other players seen practicing were Eduardo Camavinga, Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo, this week’s hero, Antonio Rudiger, and a few others. However, does all the fun end there? No! There could be some more nostalgic Real Madrid connections coming for Cristiano Ronaldo at Al Nassr.
