‘No, that’s not true’ Ronaldo disputes rumours about joining Al Nassr
Cristiano Ronaldo reacted angrily after Portugal’s 6-1 victory over Switzerland in their round of 16 match by saying, “No, that’s not true — not true.” about joining Saudi club Al Nassr.
The star’s contract was terminated by Manchester United after his explosive interview with Piers Morgan, in which he lambasted manager Erik ten Hag and the club’s owners, according to reports linking him to Al Nassr.
Ronaldo, who is now 37 and a free agent, has generated interest in Qatar and elsewhere due to his availability at the club level.
The Portuguese skipper still desires to compete in the Champions League, therefore Piers Morgan earlier refuted that he would be moving to Saudi Arabia.
“He thinks that if he does well at this World Cup, he’ll get what he really wants,” Morgan told The Telegraph.
“Which is a club in the Champions League that extends his record and his legacy.”
“It’s not about money at this stage of his career. It comes down to a burning desire to play football at the highest level, to break records and win trophies. And he has done that in more countries than any other player in history.”
