Why Cristiano Ronaldo is so Frustrated at Al-Nassr

Cristiano Ronaldo is growing frustrated at Al-Nassr’s failure to build a team capable of winning the Saudi Pro League around him. The former Manchester United man made the shocking decision to move to Saudi Arabia in January 2023. He’d been a free agent for a brief period, having been let go by the Red Devils after he went on television and blasted them in an interview. After apparently offering his services to Pep Guardiola, only to be shut down by the Manchester City boss, he decided to move to Al-Nassr.

This kickstarted a chain of events that saw multiple global icons follow suit and move to Saudi Arabia. The likes of Neymar, Karim Benzema and N’Golo Kante all moved to the Saudi Pro League within a year of Ronaldo. Al-Nassr even signed stars such as Sadio Mane and Aymeric Laporte to play alongside him.
