Cristiano Ronaldo’s contract with Al-Nassr, where he has played since 2023, is set to expire at the end of the current season. According to Marca, a Brazilian club has made a significant offer to Cristiano Ronaldo ahead of the upcoming Club World Cup. While the name of the club hasn’t been revealed, the offer is reportedly substantial and backed by external investors.
Four Brazilian teams—Palmeiras, Flamengo, Fluminense, and Botafogo—will participate in the first edition of the expanded Club World Cup, set to take place in the United States next month.
In response to rumors that Ronaldo could join Botafogo for the tournament, the club’s coach, Renato Paiva, said, “You can’t say no to a star like that.”
Marca also reported that the unnamed Brazilian club presented Cristiano Ronaldo with a lucrative proposal on Sunday that would allow him to feature in the Club World Cup.
Al-Nassr have endured a tough season, failing to win any titles or qualify for next year’s AFC Champions League. Despite the team’s struggles, the 40-year-old forward has scored an impressive 97 goals in 109 appearances for the Saudi side.
Cristiano Ronaldo: Al-Nassr Misses Out on FIFA Club World Cup 2025
Al-Nassr’s failure to qualify for the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup has sparked speculation that Cristiano Ronaldo might consider joining a Brazilian club that will be participating in the tournament this summer. However, nothing concrete has emerged yet, and Ronaldo’s future remains uncertain. It’s unclear whether he will continue with Al-Nassr after his contract expires at the end of the season, despite reports suggesting the Saudi club has offered him a new deal.
As the season nears its conclusion, the 40-year-old is expected to make a decision about his next move. Cristiano Ronaldo still believes he can perform at the highest level for several more years. One of his long-standing ambitions is to reach 1,000 career goals before retiring.
So far this season, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner and Portugal captain has made 39 appearances for Al-Nassr across all competitions, scoring an impressive 33 goals.
