Cristiano Ronaldo could be heading for the exit door at Al Nassr as his current contract is set to expire in just 45 days. The Portuguese star joined the Saudi club over two seasons ago, but things haven’t gone as planned for the five-time Ballon d’Or winner.
Trophyless Run Fuels Cristiano Ronaldo Exit Talk
Despite his global status, Ronaldo has yet to win a major title with Al Nassr. This season added to the frustration:
- AFC Champions League Elite: Knocked out in the semifinal by Kawasaki Frontale.
- Supercoppa Saudi Arabia: Lost 4-1 to Al Hilal in the final.
- King’s Cup: Eliminated by Al Taawon in the Round of 16.
- Saudi Pro League: Al Nassr are currently 11 points behind Al Ittihad with only three games remaining.
All signs point to another trophyless season, increasing the buzz around a possible Cristiano Ronaldo exit.
Tax Trouble Could Influence Cristiano Ronaldo Exit
As reported by Portuguese outlet A Bola, tax benefits in Saudi Arabia may be the key reason Ronaldo is considering moving. After completing two years of residency, Ronaldo would lose certain tax advantages—something that could significantly impact his earnings.
Sources say these financial concerns are a major factor delaying talks on contract renewal.
Sporting CP Watching Cristiano Ronaldo Exit Situation Closely
Cristiano’s first professional club, Sporting Lisbon, is reportedly interested in bringing the star back home. The Portuguese club is tied with Benfica at the top of the Primeira Liga table and hopes to make a title push while also securing Ronaldo during the next transfer window.
Athletic Form Still Solid
Even without titles, Cristiano has continued to perform well on the field. He is closing in on a historic milestone—1,000 career goals—which he hopes to reach before retiring. His last major trophy win was the Coppa Italia with Juventus back in May 2021.
As Al Nassr’s struggles continue, fans and football experts alike wonder if a Cristiano Ronaldo exit is now inevitable. Will financial reasons and title hopes elsewhere pull the legend away from Saudi Arabia? Only time will tell.
