<h4>Cristiano Ronaldo And Future Career In Al-Nassr</h4>
<p><strong><a href="https://openlife.ng/">OpenLife Nigeria</a></strong> reports that 37-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo whose contract was terminated by mutual consent at Old Trafford last week, has agreed a two-and-a-half-year deal with Al-Nassr that is worth a total of €500 million and will keep him contracted to the club until the summer of 2025, by which time he will be passed his 40th birthday.<br />
It may well be that this is Ronaldo’s final club, but they are a relatively unknown entity – so just who are they?<br />
How good are Al-Nassr?<br />
Al-Nassr play in the Saudi Pro League, which they have won nine times in the past. Their most recent title success was in the 2018/19 season. Last time out, they finished third in the 16-team league.<br />
They were formed in 1955, play at the 25,000 capacity Mrsool Park and wear yellow and blue as their home colours.<br />
The current Pro League season is only eight games old, with the season consisting of 30 matches. Presently, Al-Nassr lie second in the standings behind only Al-Shabab, who are three points clear. It will be hoped that Ronaldo can help tip the title fight in their favour.<br />
Meanwhile, the Riyadh-based club have experienced continental glory in the past, having won the Asian Cup Winners’ Cup in 1997/98. They have never won the AFC Champions League but did finish as runners-up in the competition in 1995.<br />
This is, therefore, a club that is not in a golden era.<br />
Who are Al-Nassr’s best players?<br />
Al-Nassr’s most famous current player is Colombia international <a href="https://www.google.com/">goalkeeper David Ospina,</a> who once turned out for Arsenal.<br />
In addition, they have Cameroon international forward Vincent Aboubakar on their books and striker Anderson Talisca, who formerly played with Benfica and Besiktas.<br />
Six Al-Nassr players are in Saudi Arabia’s 2022 World Cup squad.<br />
Who is Al-Nassr’s manager?<br />
Al-Nassr’s manager is Rudi Garcia, who was on a shortlist of coaches to become Manchester United interim boss last season after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was sacked. Ralf Rangnick was selected instead, with the German never getting on with Ronaldo.<br />
Garcia, meanwhile, is best known for his club management in France, where he coached Lille to the Ligue 1 title in 2012. Since then, he has also coached Roma, Marseille and Lyon to a modest degree of success.<br />
Just how long Garcia is in the post for will be questionable. He is Al-Nassr’s sixth coach since 2020. They have had 42 permanent mangers (plus two interims) since 2000.<br />
