Saudi Arabia Football Federation Yasser Al Misehal believes Cristiano Ronaldo’s signing with Al-Nassr will add enormous value to Saudi football as a whole. Ronaldo is regarded as one of the greatest of all time and his experience will definitely add value.

There is no doubt that Al-Nassr players can grow in confidence by playing under the tutelage of the Portuguese striker. Meanwhile, Ronaldo recently scored a brace for Al Nassr in the friendly match against PSG Saint Germain and he was awarded the Player of the Match.

Ronaldo has savored great success as he won 32 trophies in his career, including seven league titles, five UEFA Champions Leagues, the UEFA European Championship, and the UEFA Nations League and he would want to continue the good run in Saudi Premier League at the fag end of his career.

Speaking to journalist Manos Staramopoulos of SportPress24, the SAFF head honcho said: “There is no doubt that Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the greatest players ever to grace a football field. He is highly respected and adored in all parts of the world. His signing adds enormous value to Saudi football as a whole, not just his new club.”

“He will help inspire a generation of Saudi children who can aspire to be just like him and now they will have the opportunity to witness firsthand his professionalism which helped make him one of the biggest stars in the history of the game.”

Meanwhile, Ronaldo has so far played two official matches for Al-Nassr but he has failed to find the back of the net.

On the other hand, renowned journalist Piers Morgan revealed why Ronaldo joined hands with Al-Nassr.

Morgan told Tatler Magazine (h/t AlArabiya News): “Ideally, I think he’d have preferred to play for another top club in the Champions League for a year or two, but Al Nassr made him a staggering offer, and I think the fresh challenge of raising the profile of football in a new region of the world, at the twilight of his incredible career, really appealed to him.”
