Cristiano Ronaldo continues to shine at Al Nassr, where his presence remains a key factor in the team's success. Despite his age, the Portuguese star continues to demonstrate his class and ability to make a difference in the Saudi Pro League. With a contract linking him to Al Nassr until mid-2025, his future remains uncertain, especially with the upcoming 2025 Club World Cup in the United States. It is still unclear whether Ronaldo will participate in the tournament, as his contractual situation and the decisions he makes in the coming months will be decisive.

Al Nassr, which has already established itself as one of the most important clubs in Saudi Arabia, heavily relies on Ronaldo's influence both on and off the pitch. However, in recent weeks, a new threat has emerged on the horizon: a Saudi club that dreams of signing him for the next edition of the Club World Cup. Like Al Nassr, this club is determined to strengthen its squad with a renowned star to make an impact in the international tournament.

Interest in Ronaldo is nothing new. In 2022, Al Hilal attempted to sign him, but restrictions imposed by the Court of Arbitration for Sport thwarted the Saudi club's plans. However, over time, the club has maintained its interest in the Portuguese forward, and now, with Neymar's departure, the management has once again set its sights on Ronaldo. Al Hilal believes that the arrival of the five-time Ballon d'Or winner would be key to consolidating their dominance in Asian football and strengthening their squad ahead of the 2025 Club World Cup.

With Neymar gone, Al Hilal is searching for a new leader, and according to sources close to the club, they believe Ronaldo is the missing piece to take the team to the next level. The arrival of a player of Ronaldo's stature would not only bolster Al Hilal's attack but also raise the profile of the team internationally. With his experience and leadership, Cristiano could be the decisive factor in ensuring the team's success in the next edition of the Club World Cup.

Despite the rumours and Al Hilal's intentions, there is still no official confirmation about Ronaldo's future. In the meantime, Al Nassr remains his team, and it is expected that the Portuguese forward will continue to shine in the Saudi Pro League until his next move is decided. The possibility of Ronaldo playing in the Club World Cup remains uncertain, but it is clear that several renowned clubs have him on their radar, and his future in the international tournament continues to be a topic of speculation.

Al Hilal dreams of Cristiano Ronaldo for the Club World Cup

According to Fichajes.net, Al Hilal has set its sights on Cristiano Ronaldo as their star signing for the 2025 Club World Cup. With renowned players already in their squad, the Saudi club is looking to reinforce their team with the Portuguese star, who still has a contract with Al Nassr until mid-2025. Ronaldo's arrival would be a great opportunity to raise the team's level and consolidate their dominance in Asian football, especially after Neymar's departure.
