Ronaldo 'dumps' Al Nassr over girlfriend
Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly ended his contract with Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr after just a few months, citing personal reasons.
According to sources close to the player, Ronaldo's decision to leave Al Nassr is due to his desire to be closer to his girlfriend, Georgina Rodriguez, who is based in Europe.
The 38-year-old forward joined Al Nassr in January on a two-and-a-half year contract worth a reported £175 million per year. However, it is understood that Ronaldo has grown increasingly unhappy in Saudi Arabia and has been keen to return to Europe to be closer to his family and friends.
Al Nassr are said to be disappointed by Ronaldo's decision to leave the club, but they understand his reasons and have agreed to release him from his contract.
Ronaldo's departure from Al Nassr is a major blow to the club, who were hoping to use his star power to help them win their first Saudi Pro League title in over a decade. However, it is understood that Ronaldo's decision to leave is final and he is now looking for a new club in Europe.
It is unclear where Ronaldo will play next, but it is believed that he is open to offers from a number of clubs, including Manchester United, Chelsea and Bayern Munich.
Conclusion
Ronaldo's decision to leave Al Nassr is a surprising one, but it is understandable given his desire to be closer to his family and friends. It remains to be seen where Ronaldo will play next, but it is sure to be a major transfer that will generate a lot of interest.
