The future of Cristiano Ronaldo in soccer is highly questionable. Musalli Al-Muammar, the president of Al-Nassr, the Saudi Arabian league team where the Portuguese star currently competes, recently made statements that drew heavy criticism for the way the well-known athlete was performing for his squad.
Ronaldo has not been particularly effective for Al-Nassr. At least that is what his employer, who recently spoke with an Arab media outlet, made clear when he threw a stinging jab at what the 38-year-old has accomplished thus far with the team, in an interview.
“I’ve only ever been taken advantage of twice. The first time was when I ordered three kebabs but only received two. The second was acquiring Cristiano Ronaldo¨, as Al-Muammar reported for the media outlet ‘ArabiaNews50’.
Al-Muammar is extremely annoyed by the fact that they spent $200 million to sign the former Real Madrid FC star, but he has already logged nearly 300 minutes without scoring a goal.
Additionally, despite expectations that the team would win the Saudi Arabian National Soccer Cup given the presence of the Portuguese player, the team was eliminated in the semifinals.
Al-Wahda defeated Al-Nassr 1-0 in the semifinal of the Saudi Arabian King of Champions Cup despite having one fewer player on the field since the 53rd minute. Despite this, Al-Nassr was still able to defeat the Portuguese squad.
It has been suggested in recent hours that Cristiano Ronaldo is leaving Al-Nassr. This information hasn’t been verified yet, though.
