Cristiano Ronaldo confirms Saudi stay, says league needs to improve.
Cristiano Ronaldo announces he’s not leaving Al Nassr despite Newcastle links: “I am happy here — I want to continue here and I will continue here”.
“The league is very good, but I think we have many, many opportunities to still grow. The league is competitive. We have very good teams, very good Arab players, but they need to improve a little bit more the infrastructure.”
“But I am happy here, I want to continue here, I will continue here. And in my opinion if they continue to do the work that they want to do here, for the next five years, I think the Saudi league can be a top five league in the world.”
C.Ronaldo, 38, scored 14 goals in 16 games for Riyadh-based Al Nassr following his January move after having his Manchester United contract was cancelled by mutual consent last November.
