Cristiano Ronaldo is preparing for this FIFA International Break with Portugal and wants to do it in the best way. The recent performances with Al Nassr have caused the player to be considered by Roberto Martinez to continue to be present in the Euro Qualifiers and continue to show important things. It is worth mentioning that the Portuguese scored a brace in the last FIFA Break.

Given this, it can be said that Ronaldo, despite his 38 years, is still an important part of his country's success. Despite not having the best of performances at the Qatar 2022 World Cup, it seems that this is in the past. Even Fernando Santos, former coach of Portugal, has said that Ronaldo has not spoken since the World Cup in Qatar. Everything seems to indicate that the world star was angry with him for not taking him into account

At the same time, Al Nassr's performance this season has been outstanding. Since qualifying for the AFC Champions League, Al Nassr have had some positive moments. For this reason, it is expected that they will continue to advance and advance in the Asian Champions League and bring a good result home. Without a doubt, Luis Castro's team has stood out this season

From Spain, rumours about a possible change in the format of the UEFA Champions League continue to grow. According to COPE, UEFA wants to implement a format where there are more and more teams competing in the competition. With that said, the participating teams would increase from 32 to 36 participants. There is even talk that Arab teams could compete in European tournaments.

Would Cristiano Ronaldo play in the UEFA Champions League with Al Nassr?

According to COPE, this would allow Cristiano Ronaldo, Al Nassr and any Arab team to compete in the Champions League through a wildcard round, a format similar to that of MLS where two teams compete for a spot.

Nevertheless, the Spanish media mentions that one of the impediments could be the issue of Financial Fair Play. It is worth mentioning that Ronaldo has won 5 Champions Leagues. One with Man Utd and 4 with Real Madrid. Likewise, COPE mentions that UEFA's invitation could be given to Ronaldo's claim that he can still aspire to great things having the level for it.
