The call that Cristiano Ronaldo waited before signing for Al Nasr.. but it never came
Cristiano Ronaldo signed the contract that makes him a player in the ranks of Al-Nasr Club on Friday afternoon in Madrid, after the president and leaders of the Saudi club traveled to the Spanish capital to close an agreement drawn up in the middle of the World Cup, as reported by the Marca.
It has passed 40 days of tension, of ups and downs in feelings, of negotiations that were almost closed for several days, but they were always waiting for the last final meeting with the president of the Saudi club himself.
Ronaldo denied everything in the middle of the World Cup, but at that moment he knew his future lay in Saudi Arabia. At the time, Cristiano didn’t want any distraction, but negotiations were progressing and the striker knew everything.
It all started when Cristiano Ronaldo gave an interview to the press that meant the end as a Manchester United player and so much more. From that moment on, the Portuguese knew about the victory parade, but he also understood that his continuation in high-level European football was practically impossible.
The offer and the subsequent negotiations were carried out by Ricardo Regoff, the person very close to Cristiano Ronaldo for many years and who in this case carried the weight of the agreement until Friday afternoon. Jorge Mendes did not take part in bringing the Portuguese to victory.
The storm that arose during the World Cup, first with his substitution and then the exclusion against Morocco, prompted Cristiano Ronaldo to settle in Madrid in the absence of being included in any team. During those days when Valdebebas set foot again, he waited for a call that never came, from Real Madrid.
Rumors were fed, but without any basis and Cristiano Ronaldo knew about it. The wait ended when Al-Nassr found a way out for many players, stopped some deals they almost made and drafted various commercial agreements with which Cristiano Ronaldo would become the highest-paid player in the world.
The story that began to be told in Marca on November 25th will have a happy ending when Cristiano Ronaldo appears in Riyadh on January 2nd.
