Cristiano Ronaldo, the star of the Saudi club Al-Nasr, recently sparked controversy by posting a mysterious message through his account on “Instagram”, in light of the difficult circumstances that his team is currently going through, especially after the big loss suffered by Al-Hilal in the final of the Saudi Super Cup. Al Hilal defeated its traditional rival Al Nasr by a score of 4-1 last Saturday, to win the Super title for the second time in a row and the fifth in its history, which strengthened Al Hilal’s superiority in the number of times to win this championship by three titles from Al Nasr.
The last loss greatly affected the victory and led to internal unrest in the team. Press reports have reported that there is tension between Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammate, Senegalese star Sadio Mane, and that Mane may be on his way to move to the Etihad club on loan during the current transfer window.
Besides the problems between the players, Ibrahim Al-Muhaidib, the president of Al-Nasr Club, announced his resignation from his position, citing administrative disagreements with the club’s CEO, which further complicated matters within the team.
Amid these developments, Ronaldo surprised his followers by posting a mysterious photo on his Instagram account, showing what appears to be a podcast studio, where the T-shirts of the Portugal national team and the Victory Club appeared in the photo. This photo sparked speculation about Ronaldo’s intention to speak publicly about the current state of the team.
In turn, sports media Ali Al-Enezi confirmed via his account on the “X ” platform (formerly Twitter), that Cristiano Ronaldo will appear in a special meeting this evening, without revealing the details of the dialogue or who will conduct it, and whether the registration was made before or after the Super Final.
It is noteworthy that the super match witnessed a great anger from Ronaldo towards his teammates, as he left the field after the match without receiving the silver medal. The competitions of the new season of the Saudi Professional League are scheduled to start tomorrow, Thursday, where Al-Nasr will face Al-Raed’s team in one of the opening matches.
Since joining Al-Nasr in January 2023, Ronaldo has faced great difficulties and has not achieved any domestic or continental titles with the team, except for winning the Arab Championship at the beginning of last season at the expense of Al-Hilal with a score of 2-1.
