It's all around Ronaldo. It also seemed to be somewhat in line with expectations, but he has definitely opted for an evening hour in the sandbank. He will also have to deal with playing in front of empty stadiums. He has therefore clearly opted for the big money, sporting ambitions are apparently no longer there. You still have the Arab/African Champions League. Maybe he wants to win it again with a team. There were also few teams that had the financial means to pay Ronaldo, referring to the salary he asks for. I would have preferred to see him at a European top club. Isn't it suddenly very different for his family to settle there in an Eastern environment.
I was not surprised to understand that Ronaldo made the big movement for money. That is what I expected them to do at this stage of his career. Ronaldo is aged and he has nothing more to prove his career the only place he would have done something different was in the World Cup but his country men decided to Bench him to play younger players in the end they couldn't win the World Cup. So to keep alive his career he had to make a world breaking transfer records
Cristiano realizes that he can no longer make personal records, so he will only chase money at the end of his career as a footballer. apart from that Al Nassr also benefited from their purchase of Cristiano, merchandise sales, and also Al Nassr's prestige immediately skyrocketed, and I think both of them (Al Nassr & Cristiano) greatly benefited from this transfer which has extraordinary value.

it's obvious Ronaldo couldn't find a team in Europe that can pay he's high wages at this age. So that deal wasn't bad to me. He broke world record with this deal and he's appearance will promote the the league too. It's a good business for him and the club.

If he had agreed to take a lower salary, I believe it would have been a better deal for him. If that is the case, I think he will be able to find a team easily. However, he would have needed to take a significantly lower salary in order to be able to get an offer from a Champions League team. It is unclear to me whether he agreed to something like that or not.

As I understand it, that could have been a question if one of the UCL teams had shown an interest in him. As a matter of fact, that didn't happen in the first place. So, this is not a bad decision for him in my opinion because the money that he is going to receive is unbelievable.

For the ones who still have doubts on why he went there.
that's a very big salary but may we see sergio ramos will be moving there too? As far as i know that sergio ramos has got an offer from al nassr. There are some names who under target by al nassr

- Sergio ramos
- Busquets
- Kante

The list might increase as al nassr has an ambitious project to recruit more free transfer players. I think that sergio ramos has got a very big offer like ronaldo.

ronaldo already taken his best decision instead of keep gambling by waiting an offer that might come from the professional club but the fact that he has not got it until january. Glad to see that ronaldo was picking the best choice. The hype for him in arabian league was so big too.

Luis Suarez transferred to Gremio. He is 35 years old. He is living the last years of his football career. He played football for big clubs like Liverpool, Barcelona and Atlético Madrid. I have no doubt that he will be successful in the Brazilian League as well. Because he is a very experienced football player. Also, Luis Suarez most recently played for Uruguay's Club Nacional, and he played with the Uruguay national team in the Qatar World Cup. Now, he will share his experiences with young football players in Gremio.

Luis Suarez's announcement:
Preparado para este lindo desafío en @gremio, con muchas ganas de estar ahí y disfrutar ⚽️🇪🇪

VAMOS TRICOLOR! 😉

For 200 million this was a pretty easy decision for Ronaldo to switch to Al-Nassr, even though he said in the past that he wants to retire in Europe and not in USA or the Middle East. With such kind of salary for one year only he must be feeling validated and they are going to treat him as a King over there. Just yesterday I heard an interest opinion that this is a more complex deal by the Saudis and Ronaldo is not going to play long for Al-Nassr. The Saudi royal family owns Newcastle United F.C. through their Public Investment Fund and could make a deal between their two own football clubs. The plan would be now to be lending Ronaldo from Al-Nassr to Newcastle without charge to get around the regulation for UEFA clubs in UK. The Saudi family can easily afford to pay such kind of salaries and for them it doesn't matter out of which football team the money comes. I am wondering now if there is already a chance to bet on Ronaldo to be playing for Newcastle soon.

For the ones who still have doubts on why he went there.
It's no wonder Cristiano Ronaldo accepted Al-Nassr's offer, in fact he became the player with the biggest salary in the history of football. Maybe a lot of people hated him for accepting the offer, but when he was old and couldn't compete with other young players, wasn't that the best decision he had made at this time? I really respect whatever decision he makes and every achievement he got when he was young can inspire all the young players now.

Even though Manchester City failed to sign Endrick from Palmeiras because he's already joined to Real Madrid, but Manchester City is successfully sign Máximo Perrone from Valez Sarsfield with fee for 8 Million Euro [1] he's a young and play on central defensive midfielder position. Usually a young good player is play as striker, while the midfielder and defender are mostly played by experienced player.

It's really a good move by Manchester City because Kevin De Bruyne and Ilkay Gundongan are get older.

It looks like it will be suitable to replace Gundogan this season, for Kevin De Bruyne maybe Pep Guardiola will prepare other options for his replacement because AMF's position like De Bruyne is not just anyone who can fill that position, of course it must be a player with extraordinary experience who plays in competitive clubs europe.

It's not that I dislike Cristiano Ronaldo; it's just that he hasn't played well for quite a while. In the course of a player's career, his form declines, he sits on the bench, and he then plays outside of European football for a couple of years. As Ronaldo, this feels more than just a story about him securing a salary that would suit his view of himself as the greatest footballer.

After being rejected by every giant club in Europe, it is a cruel irony of fate. Thanks to Cristiano, the entire world will pay attention to Al Nassr and the Saudi League.

Cristiano Ronaldo has not performed as well as he should have over the past year. There is no way to deny it or sugarcoat it in any way. It was a disappointing performance from Cristiano Ronaldo, and I know that a lot of people are likely to hate me for saying this, but I have no choice but to say it anyway. I don't know whether Cristiano Ronaldo was really deserving of playing for a Champions League team or not. In any case, not with the performance, he was displaying at the time. For him, there was no other choice to make. It seems to me that he has already achieved enough in his life and that this is the right decision he is making at the moment.

Isn't it suddenly very different for his family to settle there in an Eastern environment.

Even though Ronaldo said from the start that he would not join any club if not in the European league, in reality Ronaldo is currently joining the Saudi Arabian league and joining Al Nassr. It was completely unexpected and no one thought that Ronaldo could move to the Saudi Arabian club.
Some football players who are starting to enter the end of their careers have started to choose their debut in other countries such as the Middle East, but Ronaldo himself in 2015 said he would not take a similar path like other mega stars. he said that he wants to stay at a high level until hanging up his boots.
Saudi Arabia may give the salary it wants with a fantastic amount and that is not a problem for the Nassr club.
Be shocking news at the end of 2022.
While still playing with Real Madrid Ronaldo once said he would end his career at a high level competition, according to him he would retire with dignity with an elite club in Europe. MLS, Qatar League or Dubai are not his priority, but surprisingly he has instead joined Al Nassr who is competent in the Arab League.
In November when interviewed by Piers Morgan, he considered himself an important player who could help the club with the goals he scored. He is trying to stay at the highest level while hoping that some of Europe elite clubs are interested in signing him, but the lure of £177 million per year has made Ronaldo suck at his own spit.

I am also a bit surprised by his decision to move to Al Nassr. However, Ronaldo may only see this as the right decision for now. He must be aware that it will be difficult to join big clubs with his current performance, so he probably only has a chance to join small clubs in Europa. He may plan to end his career in Europa leagues (top leagues), but what happened lately isn't as expected (it is out of his plan). He must forget his previous plan, and choose a more realistic decision. Since a big offer like Al Nassr offer won't come twice, I support his decision to accept it. We can't blame him for inconsistently in making the decision, he just has no chance to end his career in a top team as he planned previously.
In fact, his decision makes him still as the player with the highest salary in the world. he really can make it so even not winning the world cup and have old age. I know this will happen with Ronaldo with all his ego and fame, Ronaldo still has sell value that can not be equated with other players like Messi, Neymar even Mbappe. So, we'll just wait for the next happen, can he still create another 30 goals in this season?, even if not productive again, AlNasr name is increased significantly, the Social media follower is growing up more 10x, The eye world on Al-Nassr, a club which I just found out since there was Ronaldo.

Serie A definitely suits him better due to his lack of pace & general poor physicality. I see Chelsea are maybe close to signing Argentinian World Cup winner, Enzo Fernandez from Benfica for a big transfer fee. Maybe Chelsea will look to recoup some of that outlay by selling Jorginho.
Enzo Fernandez is a very young player whose skills in a central position mean he is highly considered for a potential fill-in at Chelsea and this should be a good opportunity for Enzo Fernandez's career. With a lot of experience that will be obtained at Chelsea, it will make him even more famous.
Enzo is still young but his price didn't even make sense. 120 millions for release clause was a crazy price. It seems for me that if benfica just wanna try to rob money from another team. There's no guarantee if enzo will be performing so well with the new club. I think that chelsea must try to search an alternative way for him. Liverpool has been rumoured interested with him but the club decide to search alternative player and miguel almirond has become a new target from liverpool to replace enzo on its list.
Chelsea shall stop wasting so much money for nothing.

Bayern Munich are reportedly interested in signing Morocco goalkeeper Yassine Bounou:



Bayern Munich are reportedly interested in signing Morocco goalkeeper Yassine Bounou as they look to bring in a replacement for Manuel Neuer. Bayern Munich are keep eyeing a move for Sevilla Goalkeeper Bono after World Cup heroics. Manual Neuer the best goalkeeper of all time is 1st choice of Bayern Munich at starting Xi but he has been ruled out for the rest of the season after breaking his leg while skiing following Germany's World Cup exit.German champions are keen to bring in someone to deputize for Neuer, and their sights have been set on Bono, according to German Media. Yassine Bounou would have a golden opportunity to make a better place at Xi for Champion League. But Bayern is not the only one to take an interest in the Moroccan Goalkeeper. Manchester United, Juventus, Real Madrid, and Barcelona should also link up with him but Bayern Munich is their strong favor because Bayern's CEO Oliver Kahn, who formerly played in goal for the club, is particularly impressed by Bono.

If there is any news I am interested in right now apart from Ronaldo transfer news it is this  news, I have developed a kind of likeness for this Moroccan goal keeper Yassine Bounou who was very impressive in the world cup and I would love to see him make a move to Bayern Munich where I will be watching him play in the Champions league and competing against top teams in Europe.

So this is why, call him stupid.

500 milions in 2 years Wink
Well, regardless of anything, I think this condition will still benefit Ronaldo. Stupid or not this is a decision he has made and the choice is the best for him from his own perspective.
On the other hand it is interesting to see the effect of Ronaldo's move on this Middle East team, Alnassr's followers have increased dramatically from 800 thousand followers to more than 4 million on social media as a result of the effect of his move.
