| Ronaldo faces the opportunity to return to Europe to compete. |
The defending Bundesliga champions caused a stir when they made moves to bring CR7 back to compete in Europe. The top brass of “Las Aspirinas” are still seriously considering this deal.
According to Sport , this is a request that Alonso himself proposed to the Board of Directors. The Spanish coach knows well the challenges he and his students face next season when they will compete in the Champions League. Therefore, the 42-year-old strategist needs to have quality personnel additions.
Ronaldo will be the solution to strengthen and add experience to the team. The Portuguese superstar is expected to be a puzzle piece to help Coach Alonso’s team advance further in the Champions League.
However, the 39-year-old still has a contract with Al-Nassr until 2025. This team will not easily let their superstar leave. At the same time, Ben Jacobs, talkSPORT’s Saudi Arabian football reporter, also gave another reason related to finance.
He revealed: “The extension of the tournament’s television rights will take place in 2025. Having Ronaldo stay in the next copyright period is considered important.”
Even though he is about to turn 40, Ronaldo still has impressive form at Al-Nassr with 39 goals and 12 assists in 39 matches in all competitions. However, this superstar still could not help Al-Nassr win the Saudi Pro League.
