Portugal football legend Cristiano Ronaldo has hinted at a potential departure from Saudi club Al-Nassr after the conclusion of the Saudi Pro League season.
On Monday, the 40-year-old posted a cryptic message on social media, saying, “This chapter is over,” alongside a photo of himself in the Al-Nassr jersey. He added, “The story? Still being written. Grateful to all,” suggesting that while his time with the club might be ending, his career journey continues.
Ronaldo joined Al-Nassr in 2022 from Manchester United, signing a contract set to expire this summer. During his time in Saudi Arabia, he became the league’s top scorer this season with 24 goals, despite the club finishing third and missing out on the Asian Champions League Elite after losing to Kawasaki Frontale in the semi-finals.
A special transfer window will open from June 1 to 10, providing an opportunity for the 32 clubs involved in the Club World Cup to make new signings — a potential window for Ronaldo’s next move.
Last year, Ronaldo had indicated he might end his playing career at Al-Nassr, but his recent message leaves his future open to speculation. Football fans and pundits worldwide will be watching closely to see where the iconic forward might head next.
