Cristiano Ronaldo has started the year with a new team. Saudi Arabia’s Al Nassr has become his new home following his departure from Manchester United, following a split deal in the middle of the 2022 Qatar World Cup.
Now, the contract that CR7 has signed with Al Nassr includes a detail that would allow him to sign with an English club in mid-2023, all to play in the UEFA Champions League.
Portuguese goalscorer crosses fingers for Newcastle to remain in qualifying positions in England; for now they are third, behind Arsenal and Manchester City.
From Europe they ensure that this would be possible thanks to a detail of the contract he recently signed with the Saudis, thinking about his future and his desire to play in the Champions League, which he could not do with United.
The Portuguese would leave Al Nassr in the summer transfer market to play on loan at Newcastle United, in the Premier League. CR7 are keen to expand their top scorer record in Europe’s top club tournament and this would be the only way to do so.
It should be remembered that the signing of Cristiano Ronaldo was confirmed on Friday 30 December 2022, which was an open secret in the midst of the Qatar World Cup. An announcement surprised many who even saw the striker return to Real Madrid. In Al Nassr, where the Colombian David Ospina plays, CR7 will receive a salary of around 200 million euros a year.
