From now on, superstar captain Cristiano Ronaldo will have a significant say in the transfer activities of the Al-Nassr club. Ronaldo receives unbelievable privileges at Al-Nassr. After a trophyless season in 2022/23, Al-Nassr is planning a strong squad overhaul to aim for a more successful campaign in 2023/24, with the goal of winning the Saudi Arabia League title. As a result, Al-Nassr will recruit high-quality players while also offloading several players who are not part of the plans.
According to The Athletic, Ronaldo holds significant power in Al-Nassr's squad rebuilding process. Specifically, CR7 has been chosen by Al-Nassr as one of the key members leading the club's transfer committee. With this important responsibility, Ronaldo will have a decisive voice in identifying potential targets for Al-Nassr.
In simpler terms, Ronaldo will be one of the key figures in the team's squad development, player acquisitions, and sales. The influence of Ronaldo at Al-Nassr is evident, even though the 38-year-old forward has only been with the club for over five months. Not only does he have a weighty voice within the club's management, but CR7 also demonstrates his leadership role on the field and in the dressing room.
In the previous season, Ronaldo performed brilliantly despite joining midway through the campaign. Nevertheless, the Portuguese international scored 14 goals in 16 matches in the Saudi League. Unfortunately, CR7 couldn't help Al-Nassr secure the championship this season. Following an unsuccessful 2022/23 season, Ronaldo is currently enjoying his summer break.
Recently, CR7 visited Singapore to promote a scholarship fund established by his close friend Peter Lim. Next, Ronaldo will join the Portugal national team to prepare for the EURO 2024 qualifiers.
