Cristiano Ronaldo is still banging in the goals for Saudi Arabian side Al Nassr at the age of 39.
Ronaldo made the move to the Middle East a month after the 2022 World Cup in Qatar as he closed the chapter on his extraordinary European career.
Al Nassr boast an impressive collection of 28 official trophies and domestically, the club has clinched nine Pro League titles, six King Cups, three Crown Prince’s Cups, three Federation Cups, and two Super Cups.
Ronaldo’s side lost out on a league title to Al Ittihad last season and Al Hilal are on the cusp of glory this time around. Al Nassr were also dumped out of the AFC Champions League on penalties by Al Ain .
The Sporting News will be keeping an eye on Ronaldo’s progress and providing updates on his fitness and availability throughout the 2023/24 season.
