January 05, (THEWILL) – Cristiano Ronaldo has affirmed his commitment to Al Nassr amid transfer speculation, declaring his intention to remain with the Saudi Arabian club through the duration of his contract.
The Portuguese forward addressed rumours linking him to European clubs during a recent media appearance.
Speaking to Saudi Pro League media channels, the 39-year-old stated, “I am happy and my family is happy. We started a new life in this beautiful country.
Life is good, football is good. In terms of individual and collective, we are still there, still improving.”
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner, who joined Al Nassr in January 2023 on a contract reportedly worth £177 million, emphasised his dedication to helping the team compete against rivals such as Al Hilal and Al Ittihad.
His current agreement extends until summer 2024, with recent speculation suggesting potential moves to Manchester City or Paris Saint-Germain.
Ronaldo specifically mentioned his ambition to win the AFC Champions League with Al Nassr, stating, “The Champions League is something I want to win for the club. But the most important is to keep pushing and be professional.”
This declaration appears to dismiss reports of a potential January transfer.
The record-holding international goalscorer continues to perform at a high level despite approaching his 40th birthday in February.
His achievements include multiple UEFA Champions League victories with Real Madrid and Manchester United, alongside leading Portugal to European Championship glory.
