Cristiano Ronaldo has secured a conditional agreement with his coach about his appearances in this season for Al Nassr.
Cristiano Ronaldo is currently the brightest star of Al Nassr as well as Saudi Arabian football. This season, the Portuguese striker is working under the guidance of fellow countryman coach Jorge Jesus, and the two have reached a special arrangement concerning his playing time.
According to reports from 365Scores, Ronaldo and coach Jorge Jesus agreed on a conditional deal since the coach took over Al Nassr. Specifically, CR7 is not required to play all the matches this season but only needs to participate in at least 25% of the games. This strategy aims to preserve the fitness of the 40-year-old superstar while ensuring he maintains a high level of performance, especially targeting the goal of attending the 2026 World Cup with the Portugal national team.
Additionally, Ronaldo requested that if Al Nassr wins any domestic or international titles, he will receive the full financial rewards stipulated in his contract.
The source also mentioned that Al Nassr’s management fully supports this agreement. They believe it not only helps Ronaldo maintain his physical condition and top-level quality but also motivates him to continue giving his best in the pursuit of trophies with the club.
At 40 years old, Cristiano Ronaldo still proves his status as a world-class superstar. This season, he has played 6 matches for Al Nassr in the Saudi Pro League, scoring 5 goals and providing 1 assist. Besides maintaining an impressive scoring rate, CR7 is also a spiritual leader, driving the whole team forward at crucial moments.
Thanks to Ronaldo’s brilliance, Al Nassr currently leads the league table, confirming their position as the top contender for the championship. This clearly shows that even in his forties, Ronaldo’s goal-scoring instinct and hunger for success remain undiminished.
