The Portuguese was consulted about the possibility of going to the United States and he was forceful.

Lionel Messi signed with Inter Miami and some fans were excited about the possibility of Cristiano Ronaldo landing in Los Angeles FC to enjoy the last chapter of the most emblematic rivalry in football history due to rumors that this franchise would go in search of the Portuguese in case of not renewing the Mexican striker Carlos Vela. However, CR7 was forceful in the last hours.

The Portuguese striker played a friendly against Celta de Vigo on Monday and, after Al-Nassr's 5-0 defeat, he spoke to the press to talk about his future. "The door to go to Europe is closed, from my point of view football there has lost a lot of quality, except for the Premier League", he commented in the first instance. Immediately afterwards, a journalist asked him if he would go to the United States and, quickly, Ronaldo released: "No, no. The Saudi league is better than the MLS."

It should be remembered that, regardless of his desire to play against Messi again or not, Cristiano was left with the thorn of not having been able to win anything in his first campaign in Saudi Arabia. He had come to a leading Al-Nassr and finished as runner-up. Now, with the arrival of so many figures in the league, it will be even more difficult for him.

What reinforcements did Al-Nassr shut down?

For now, the two footballers from Europe who will accompany Cristiano next season are Marcelo Brozovic and Seko Fofana. Hakim Ziyech had reached an agreement, but he did not pass the medical examinations and now his arrival is uncertain. For its part, the squad already has other international players such as Talisca or David Ospina.
