Cristiano Ronaldo may be heading back to Europe, according to Al-Nassr coach Rudi Garcia.
CRISTIANO RONALDO HEADING TO EUROPE AGAIN?
Rudi Garcia reckons CR7 will head back to Europe once his time with Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr is done. He hasn’t said where, but he sounds convinced regardless. Still, it’s quite a strange quote from his current manager who will surely be trying to get the best out of him in Saudi Arabia.
“Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the best players in the world. He will not finish his career at Al-Nassr, he will return to Europe.” Garcia said.
RONALDO STRUGGLING TO GET GOING
So far, CR7’s Al-Nassr career hasn’t really lived up to the hype. He’s played two competitive matches and failed to score in either of them. The Saudi Pro League leaders were also dumped out of the Saudi Super Cup by Al-Ittihad. Next up for Rudi Garcia and his charges is a trip to Al Fateh. Ronaldo did score in a friendly match between PSG and the Riyadh All-Stars, a team he captained, but he’s yet to break his competitive duck.
