A former high-ranking member of Al-Nassr FC has criticized Cristiano Ronaldo, stating that "he does not compete for space with opponents nor participate in defense, making Al-Nassr play as if they are one man down." This individual also believes that Al-Nassr's chances of winning the championship were slim from the beginning of the season. Coincidentally, Al-Nassr currently ranks fourth in the Saudi Professional League, trailing the top teams, Al-Nassr and Al-Ittihad Jeddah, by 11 points, making their title hopes bleak. The reason given by this high-ranking official is straightforward: when Ronaldo is on the field, Al-Nassr effectively plays with one less player. This observation is clear to all fans, yet some prefer to ignore the obvious and blame the coach for the team's poor performance. Recently, there have been rumors that Pioli is at risk of being sacked, a situation that feels familiar. In the first season after joining the Saudi league, without a championship, Rudi Garcia was dismissed. In the second season, Castro led Al-Ahli to win the AFC Champions League, but was also fired due to the lack of a regular-season title. Now, in the third season, the problem of not being able to compete for the championship still exists. Do you think this is related to the coach? Firstly, before Ronaldo arrived, Al-Nassr had one fewer match played and led by five points in second place under Rudi Garcia. Castro, an experienced coach who had never been fired before, was let go by Al-Nassr because of his tenure with Mr. A. Now, it's Pioli's turn. Do you…

In January 2023, Cristiano Ronaldo joined Al-Nassr FC with a promise to bring championships to the team. Unfortunately, more than two years have passed, and Ronaldo has yet to fulfill his promise. In the early hours of today, Al-Nassr was held to a 1-1 draw, effectively ending Ronaldo's hopes for the league title. Before this match, Al-Nassr was ranked third in the Saudi Professional League. To catch up with the two teams ahead of them (Al-Hilal and Al-Ittihad Jeddah), Ronaldo's team needed to secure victories in the coming games. Facing Al-Batin, a weaker opponent, Al-Nassr had a good chance to take all three points. However, Al-Nassr failed to capitalize on the opportunity. In the last moments of the first half, Al-Batin broke the deadlock, making it 1-0. In the second half, with no room for error, Al-Nassr pushed forward aggressively. Ronaldo made several attempts but could not find the back of the net. In the 63rd minute, Laporte scored a header, leveling the score at 1-1. Despite dominating the final 30 minutes, Al-Nassr could not score again, resulting in a 1-1 draw away from home. In their last four matches across all competitions, Al-Nassr has only won one, showing poor form. Ronaldo played the full match, attempting eight shots with three on target, both being the highest in the game. However, he could not contribute to the team's goal tally, ending his streak of scoring in six consecutive matches across competitions. Ronaldo also provided two key passes. After the match, Ronaldo received a rating of 7.5, ranking second within the…

Neymar, as a top star in the world of football, has always been loved by fans. However, Neymar does have a significant issue: his professional attitude and spirit do not meet the standards of a top superstar. During this season with Al-Nassr, Neymar's performance was subpar. After returning from injury this season, he only played three games before getting injured again, which forced him to rest. During his recovery period, Neymar did not properly prepare or participate in matches; instead, he traveled around. This behavior has completely disappointed Al-Nassr, and this time, Jorge Jesus, the head coach of Al-Nassr, also discussed Neymar's issues during a post-match press conference. Coach Jorge Jesus of Al-Nassr stated, "We will not register Neymar for the second half of the season. We know that he cannot reach his previous level, and it is very difficult for him to change. We will not give him opportunities, but although he cannot participate in the league, he still has a chance to play in the AFC Champions League." From this statement, it is clear that Coach Jorge Jesus of Al-Nassr is quite disdainful of Neymar. He even publicly stated that Neymar cannot return to his former level. This statement also proves that Al-Nassr will not give Neymar the opportunity to play. Neymar's contract will expire, and he will leave. Now, Al-Nassr probably regrets not signing Cristiano Ronaldo back then, as Ronaldo's professionalism and attitude are far superior to Neymar's.

Cristiano Ronaldo has been in the Saudi league for 2 years and has only led Al-Nassr to win one limited-content AFC Champions League title, failing to win any other titles in other events. The overall competition in the Saudi league is very fierce, even a strong player like Ronaldo faces great challenges. Former Shanghai Port foreign aid, Bargas, transferred to Al-Hilal this year, but suffered a huge defeat in his first game. Does Bargas regret it? His Saudi debut ended with a 0-9 defeat, the team has not won in 14 games and is at the bottom of the standings, possibly returning to the harbor. In the Saudi Professional League match that ended on January 17th, Beijing time, Al-Hilal won a big victory over Al-Taawoun at home. In the absence of Neymar and Mitrovic, Al-Hilal fielded eight foreign players including Leonardo, Milinkovic, Malcom, Neves, Lodi, Koulibaly, Cancelo, and Bunu, plus Saudi internationals Dawasari, Dawsari, and Blasie, with a starting lineup worth 144 million euros, while Al-Taawoun's starting lineup was worth 13.5 million euros. Throughout the game, Al-Hilal had 64% possession, completed as many as 35 shots, 14 of which were on target, while Al-Taawoun had 36% possession, 11 shots with 5 on target. There was a huge gap in strength between the two teams. In the first half, Koulibaly, Lodi, Leonardo, and Milinkovic scored successively, and in the second half, Leonardo scored another two goals, Hamdan and Malcom also scored, Al-Taawoun player Abdulwahid scored an own goal, and Jari was sent off. If it weren't for Jari's foul tackle, Al-Hilal…

In the early hours of January 17th, Beijing time, the defending champions Al-Hilal scored a resounding 9-0 victory over Al-Fateh, the bottom team in the Saudi League, in a focus match of the 15th round. As a battle between the top and bottom of the Saudi League standings, the outcome of the game seemed to have little suspense. Despite Al-Fateh's resistance against Al-Hilal's attacks in the first 20 minutes, their psychological defense was completely shattered after Koulibaly's header broke the deadlock in the 20th minute. Al-Hilal led 4-0 at halftime. In the second half, Al-Hilal scored another five goals, with Leonardo completing a hat-trick. This score also tied the record for the largest margin of victory in Saudi League history, which was previously held by Al-Hilal. Last season in the 14th round of the Saudi League, Al-Hilal won 9-0 away against Al-Hazem. Furthermore, Leonardo's hat-trick goal was the 1000th goal scored by Al-Hilal in the Saudi League, making them the first team in the league's history to achieve this feat. After this overwhelming victory, Al-Hilal has won four consecutive league games, accumulating 40 points to continue leading the standings. After only 15 rounds, Al-Hilal has scored an impressive 48 goals. They also hold a significant advantage with 34 goal difference, far surpassing Al Ittihad Jeddah. If the two teams were to decide the league championship based on goal difference, Al-Hilal would undoubtedly be in a favorable position.

Cristiano Ronaldo has not lived up to expectations since joining Al-Nassr in the Saudi League. In the three years since his move, he has failed to win any titles, with the exception of the unofficial friendly match nature of the Arab Champions Trophy, which is not recognized by FIFA. This has led to significant doubts about Ronaldo's abilities. It now appears that Ronaldo has realized the difficulty of winning titles with Al-Nassr. English media outlet talkSPORT's chief journalist, Alex Crook, has reported that Ronaldo is likely to leave Al-Nassr at the end of his contract this season and join Al-Hilal, as both clubs are owned by the same person. Ronaldo is open to new challenges after his contract expires. This news comes as quite a surprise, as Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr are fierce local rivals. Ronaldo's decision to move from Al-Nassr to Al-Hilal without securing a title may be hard for fans to accept. However, Al-Hilal hopes that Ronaldo can replace Neymar and become the team's iconic figure. This choice is considered wise, given Ronaldo's professional attitude and goal-scoring ability, which are significantly higher than Neymar's. It is a smart decision to rely on Ronaldo to become the team's leader. Ronaldo can also erase the shame of going three years without a title since joining the Saudi League. However, for Ronaldo, choosing to return to Europe to play after his contract expires this season might be a good option, as it would better prepare him for the upcoming 2026 World Cup.

On January 7th, Beijing time, according to the latest report from authoritative media The Athletic, Neymar will stay in the winter window and fulfill his contract with Al Nassr before leaving the team in the summer window. Judging by Neymar's performance after transferring to Al Nassr, it shows that the Paris Saint-Germain management is truly wise. In contrast, the Saudi Arabian tycoon Al Nassr paid a high price but did not receive much return from Neymar's transfer. Paris Saint-Germain's vision is really sharp! They are relieved to let him go: the 32-year-old discard has sunk, and his value has dropped from 180 million to 15 million. Neymar left Barcelona for 222 million euros and joined Paris Saint-Germain, where he remains the highest transfer fee in football history. Neymar has a high efficiency in creating goals at Paris Saint-Germain, scoring 118 goals and providing 77 assists in 173 appearances, a stellar performance. However, Neymar's attendance rate at Paris Saint-Germain is not high. He played for six seasons at Paris Saint-Germain, with a maximum of 31 appearances in a single season. With Neymar, Paris Saint-Germain dominated Ligue 1 and reached the Champions League final for the first time in their history, creating history. The team also made a lot of money commercially. The introduction of Neymar was a great success for Paris Saint-Germain. When Nasser sold him, it went smoothly. Neymar was often injured at Paris Saint-Germain. In his last season at Paris Saint-Germain, he missed the entire season due to an ankle injury, and his age was also increasing. Al Nassr…

On the morning of January 8th, Beijing time, according to the latest report from well-known journalist Graeme Bailey, Cristiano Ronaldo may leave Al Nassr this summer but will continue to play in the Saudi league, joining title rivals Al Hilal. This summer, Ronaldo's contract with Al Nassr will expire, and the Portuguese superstar is currently considering transferring to Al Hilal. In Ronaldo's view, joining Al Hilal will better help him compete for championship trophies. Moreover, the transfer will give him the opportunity to participate in the new format of the Club World Cup. Additionally, his goal is to represent the Portuguese team in next year's World Cup. Brazilian star Neymar of Al Hilal is very likely to leave the team after his contract expires, and the club will have enough salary space to sign Ronaldo. However, transferring to a rival for the championship will likely cause significant controversy, especially angering the die-hard fans of Al Nassr. Since joining Al Nassr in January 2023, Ronaldo has made 88 appearances in various competitions, contributing 80 goals and 19 assists. Unfortunately, since joining, Ronaldo has only led the team to win one Arab Champions League trophy that is not recognized by FIFA. Currently, after 13 rounds of the Saudi league this season, Al Nassr, where Ronaldo plays, has been left behind by the top of the table by 12 points, basically exiting the league championship race. Considering that his career is already limited, Ronaldo indeed needs to carefully consider his last future direction.

Today, several Portuguese journalists reported that Paris is in communication with Cristiano Ronaldo and hopes to sign the Portuguese superstar. However, this news was later "cut down," with Paris clearly stating that they are not interested in Ronaldo. Ronaldo currently plays for Riyadh Victory. Since joining the Saudi league in January 2023, he has been in explosive form over the past two years, making a total of 83 appearances for Riyadh Victory, scoring 74 goals, providing 18 assists, and directly contributing to 92 goals. Ronaldo's current contract will expire in six months, and Riyadh Victory hopes he can renew his contract as soon as possible. According to Saudi media, Riyadh Victory has already offered Ronaldo a renewal contract and is expected to increase his annual salary to an insane 300 million euros. However, Ronaldo recently temporarily rejected Riyadh Victory's contract. Multiple media outlets claim that Ronaldo is eager to join a competitive team and wants to win more titles. In his two years at Riyadh Victory, Ronaldo has not won a single championship, which is quite embarrassing and frustrating for him. Portuguese journalist Pedro Almeida dropped a bombshell today: Paris is in contact with Ronaldo. This news immediately sparked heated discussions after it was disclosed. However, French media outlet RMC later emphasized that Paris has not had any dialogue with Ronaldo, and there are no signs indicating that Paris wants to sign Ronaldo. Three days ago, another Saudi powerhouse, Riyadh New Moon, also rejected Ronaldo. A Saudi journalist reported that the management of Riyadh New Moon is not interested in…

Cristiano Ronaldo has been with the Saudi league for two years, and his arrival has accelerated the development of the Saudi league, helping to attract many big-name players, changing the landscape of football and making the Saudi Super League a focal point. Ronaldo's contract with Al-Nassr is set to expire at the end of June next year, which is at the end of this season, and his future has become a topic of interest. Currently, it seems that Al-Nassr is in a passive position regarding whether they can retain Ronaldo. The partnership has come to an end, and Ronaldo has announced a new decision, which has been approved by Al-Nassr. On December 30th, according to Portuguese media Maisfutebol, Ronaldo is more inclined to leave the team and join another club rather than renewing his contract with Al-Nassr. It is understood that this decision is not related to financial issues. Sources close to Ronaldo revealed that he wants to join a team capable of competing for major championships. Obviously, despite Ronaldo's already impressive list of honors, he still has the motivation to compete for titles, and Al-Nassr may not be able to meet his requirements. He is likely to leave as a free agent when his contract expires, and both parties will go their separate ways. Ronaldo maintains an extremely high goal-scoring efficiency wherever he plays. A truly talented player does not perform poorly due to changes in environment or team. Ronaldo has shown remarkable efficiency in scoring goals for Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus, and the Portuguese national team, where…
