that is correct and they are earning from their social media accounts because of their huge fans - Ronaldo is an instant money
no matter what! Many people take about his age - but with age comes more face value !!

Al Nassr's popularity immediately rose thousands of percent because of the presence of Cristiano, so if they make Cristiano uncomfortable, then Al Nassr's popularity will dim again. and messi or benzema are included in the news circulating. Regarding Al Nassr's performance, they are still having a hard time beating Al Ittihad and if Al Ittihad doesn't lose to another team then Al Nassr's chances of becoming champions this season are very small.

Messi chances of returning to Fc Barcelona is quite better than that of him moving to Saudi Arabia professional league just to play with Ronaldo. I don't even see him considering a move to Arab league cuz Already he knows what Nuisance such decision could put amongst fans (especially the Ronaldo vs Messi rivalry fans) though such nuisance wouldn't affect him. But to me,  it could be a difficult decision for Messi.
But Messi playing alongside Lewandowsky would have been an exciting moment to witness in this modern era of football.and I believe that he (Messi) will feel good to work with Xavi. Such a team will definitely suit Lionel.

Off course they will try all the best to make Ronaldo stay comfortable in the club,  Ronaldo coming into the club has added more advantage to the club in gaining popularity than other Saudi Arabia  club, and the  club performance is not bad, they might win the league for the season.

When it comes to Al Nassr and Al Ittihad going at it on the football field, there are more twists and turns than a rollercoaster. With only one point separating them, the stakes are high in every matchup.

Al Nassr may have it easier with Al Adalah, but no team should be taken for granted. Don't even get me started on the major hitters on Al Ittihad, like Hamdallah, who can completely change the game in an instant.

However, supporters of Al Nassr need to hold fast. They have a competent team that has proven themselves capable of running the company. I think they have what it takes to win the championship this year.

Messi are able to play many more years if he won't get an injury which can terminate his career immediately like Marco van Basten got with his ankle injury. With skills Messi has, he can even play longer than Cristiano Ronaldo (without serious injury is a condition) but when he gets older, he will run less, walk more on the field. However he has good vision and passing skills to walk, stay around the middle circle and pass the ball to his team-mates. I hope I have a good imagination on how Messi will play in next seasons.

The difference is small (only 1 point) and I believe Cristiano Ronaldo will boost his team-mates to play better in last remaining 9 matches and take the trophy of Saudi Professional League. He will not want to fail in this race even it is not a big league, not a big title but Ronaldo is a player who always hunts trophies if he can.

Saudi authorities seem to be relaxing some of its laws to make these superstars comfortable.
Since Ronaldo got so much love and respect when he shifted to Saudia - there is no doubt that Messi might think to shift to a new culture for the sake of experience and honor.

Ronaldo is a big name and he alone has made the authorities change law for him -  Arab has different laws for local and different for the legends.
Now the government of saudi has made things easier for muslim as well, but not like Ronaldo

Ronaldo transferred to the Saudi league at the age of 38. Messi's age is only 35 years old. We'll see what Messi will do after playing football for 3 more years. Maybe he won't even play football for 3 more years. That's why we have to use the right parameters when comparing these two star football players. Messi may leave football there after returning to Barcelona and playing there for several years. At the end of last season, Ronaldo could have done the same at Manchester United. However, Ronaldo wanted to play for a few more years and so he chose Al-Nassr, one of the best alternatives at the table.

Not 8, but 9 games remaining until the end of this season for Al Ittihad and Al Nassr. but yes, the hunt for a trophy this season is still wide open for these two teams. because after all, the difference is 1 point with 9 matches remaining, making the competition from these two teams feel very competitive. and if, one of these two teams slips in future matches. automatically, providing an opportunity to shift the top of the standings, or widen the points of the team below it. What is certain, these two teams will be more focused in every game after game.

On April 5, the two teams will play their match. Al Ittihad will have a match against Damac, while Al Nassr will visit Al Adalah headquarters. well, if we refer to the opponent. it seems, Al Nassr will have an easy match considering their opponent is not a strong team. in fact, Al Adalah is currently in the relegation zone. so, on paper Al Nassr will win this fight.

Meanwhile, it's different from the Al Ittihad vs Damac match. although these two teams have a gap based on standings ranking, Damac is not an easy opponent for them to overthrow. because, if we refer to the history of the H2H meeting of these two teams. neither of these teams have dominated wins. in fact, the first meeting match the score ended in a draw with 1-1. meaning, this match is crucial for the home team. because they need a win to maintain the top of the standings. however, it is not easy and they have to pay for it with hard work. It's fun isn't it, so let's just wait until the two teams we mentioned here play their match later.

The differences at the top are quite small in the competition at the moment. Al Hilal is only 2 points ahead of All Ittihad, but they have only won 1 x in the last 5 games, so there is a gap. The first 3 teams in the ranking differ considerably from the other teams in the ranking, you will soon start to see the differences. If Messi comes to this league, I wonder which team will he play in? A team with Messi and Ronaldo together wouldn't be too bad either, but I think Ronaldo's competitor would like to play in another team. A sporting reivility can still motivate these two players enormously.

No doubt Al Nassr looks favorite to win the league this season and that's not just because of the influence of Ronaldo in the club but because of the general team play of the club has improved, they're playing better now. I don't think there's anything Al Nassr can do if Ronaldo decides to leave the club, if any top team in Champions League competition comes knocking, he'll definitely consider their proposal. Al Nassr congratulating Ronaldo on his achievement has nothing to do with them wanting him to stay, infact I think they're doing that because they would had done the same for another players that achieved that milestone in their career while playing for their club.

Also I think that's just some PR, the more they talk about Ronaldo the more the engagement they get and traffic into their club, which is very good for marketing and business in general. The more popular Al Nassr gets the more sponsorship deals they'll get and imagine having all the Arabic money flowing into your club, Ronaldo social media influence is capable of doing that for them so they have to capitalize on it heavily before they lose it via Ronaldo's departure.

I really wouldn't These are world class players and that league doesn't have other world class players around him. Ronaldo had United players all around him and then suddenly the best player playing with him is Talisca, Messi is playing with Mbappe and sometimes Neymar when he is not injured lol, and he would be playing with who?

I really do not think that it would be a wise move for him, definitely not at this age. This dude already had a good season with PSG, maybe lost in UCL but still winning the league at least, and they are still trying to win at least one UCL with this squad, so he can stay another 2 seasons if you ask me, then we will see how he is still playing.

Extra, extra, read all about it! The rumor mill is back in business! But let's be real, who wouldn't want to witness Messi and Ronaldo duke it out in the Middle East? It's like a football match-up of legendary proportions. And, let's not kid ourselves, with a Saudi contract that sweet, I'd be packing my bags in a jiffy!

But let's dig in. What does loyalty even mean in the context of athletics? Which comes first, the team or the player? Messi, at his age, is entitled to pursue whatever interests him. Maybe he'll find his ideal home in Saudi Arabia. And if he does decide to go, let's all root for him and enjoy the show!

Al-Nassr is making every effort to make Ronaldo's stay in Saudi Arabia lovely and remarkable. He was honored for winning the most men's international football caps yesterday. They realize that Ronaldo works really hard when he is content. You'll appreciate his game more. And if he is content, they will achieve greater success. And they are attempting tov harm him in this way. They're now second in the standings but are giving him everything he needs to feel at ease and win the league this year. They'll rise to the top once more, in my opinion.

there are still 8 more matches to be completed in the future and the competition between al nassr and al ittihad will be very exciting, the toughest opponent from the two teams is only al hilal and I wonder which team will be tripped (lose) when facing al hilal, is that al nassr or al ittihad!

al ittihad has hamdallah, which is the current top scorer of the arab league, while talisca is still in 2nd position.

@Slow death if Messi does decides to go to Saudi I won’t judge him, because at his age he won’t get such a lucrative contract again and the chance to play against Ronaldo is tempting hence I feel that it would be justified if he left PSG for Saudi. Lastly even though Xavi wants him, but can Xavi now rebuild the team to suit Messi and would Messi be happy to play second fiddle to Lewandowski I don’t think so hence I don’t expect him to come back to Barcelona.

Everything about Messi going to Arab clubs is still just a rumor, almost the same as what happened to Ronaldo when he hadn't made up his mind after leaving Man United lots of rumors going around, but Messi didn't have to decide in a hurry because PSG still really wanted him, as well as his old club, Barca, even Xavi commented he would love it if his former team-mates returned to Barca and also clubs in MLS express interest in Messi. So Messi is a little different from Ronaldo because there are still many clubs in the big leagues that want Messi as players and maybe club arab is the last choice.

It has been a problem since time passed. So many laws guiding the Arab professional league are the main reason some retired footballers and other sportsmen could not find the league attractive. It's not just a way of protecting the league but also, it is the Arabic way of life and can't be changed.  I'm not surprised about Ronaldo's Liberty of moving in with his girlfriend because I know that alone will be a big problem for him if obstructed. They will be more football icons in the Arab league if some of these laws are alleviated

Ronaldo made a whole lot of money from the Saudi League but he deserved every single dollar spent on him. The attention and publicity he brought to the League are groundbreaking. His presence has made Saudi a viable destination for some experienced and world-class players. Some players in my country are now targeting clubs in Saudi because of the influence and rave Ronaldo brought to that once unpopular football league. If Messi is motivated by money, Saudi is the best place to retire.
Obeying these Islamic laws are some of the prices every player will have to pay for the fortune that will be acquired. This issue might be discouraged to some players that would have been attracted to the league. But the Saudi authorities seem to be relaxing some of its laws to make these superstars comfortable. A typical example is the clearance given to Ronaldo to live with his girlfriend Georgina Rodríguez even when living with a lady you are not legally married to is a crime in Saudi Arabia.
