Cristiano Ronaldo is said to have campaigned for the sacking of coach Rudi Garcia. But now he bids him farewell.
WHAT HAPPENED? Cristiano Ronaldo has come up with one Instagram-Post approved by Rudi Garcia, his manager at Al-Nassr, who was sacked on Thursday.
WHAT WAS SAID? “It was a pleasure working with you. I wish you all the best for the future,” wrote CR7 towards the Frenchman.
WHAT IS THE BACKGROUND? Garcia had to leave the Saudi Arabian club after just eight months. Ronaldo is said to have been among the players who did not agree with his work, but in his farewell post it sounds different now. CR7 has played for Al-Nassr since the beginning of the year and is said to have spoken out in favor of Zinedine Zidane or José Mourinho as Garcia’s successor.
THE PICTURE FOR THE NEWS:
A LOOK AT THE NUMBERS: Al-Nassr is second in the table in the Saudi Pro League. They are three points behind leaders Ittihad with seven games remaining.
