Cristiano Ronaldo has confirmed plans to extend his contract with Saudi Pro League side Al Nassr, quashing speculation about a possible exit. The Portuguese superstar told Fabrizio Romano on social media, “My future? Basically, nothing is gonna change. Staying at Al Nassr? Yea,” signaling his readiness to sign a new deal.
Since his arrival in December 2022 on a lucrative contract, Ronaldo has transformed Al Nassr’s fortunes and raised the profile of Saudi football worldwide. His influence has attracted other top talents to the league, enhancing its competitiveness and visibility. Ronaldo’s recent success with Portugal, winning the Nations League, further underscores his enduring quality at age 40.
The contract extension is expected to secure Ronaldo’s presence at Al Nassr through at least 2026, reinforcing the club’s ambitions and the Saudi league’s growing stature on the global stage. This move also highlights Ronaldo’s dedication to the region’s football development and his role as a key figure in its future.
