Ronaldo’s three goals on Saturday mean he has now either scored or assisted Al-Nassr’s last 10 goals. That form could catch the eye of one of Europe’s big-hitters, despite Saudi officials’ desperation to keep their league’s star player.
Al-Nassr defender and former Bayern Munich ace Luiz Gustavo recently revealed that Ronaldo’s presence was making games harder for his team-mates. He explained to RT Arabic: “The presence of Cristiano Ronaldo gives his rivals more incentive to beat the league leaders.
“Cristiano motivates everyone. His presence guarantees a great advantage to our group because we learn from him every day, given the great technical and physical qualities he possesses. Cristiano Ronaldo was created for challenges, and he always succeeds.”
