Posted by According to the Daily Mail, Cristiano Ronaldo, who recently joined Al-Nassr, will have to wait before making his debut for his new team because he has not yet completed the suspension he received for breaking a supporter of Everton’s phone last year.
Ronaldo won’t play for Al-Nassr against Al-Ta’ee on Thursday night in a Saudi Pro League match as a result.
Remember that Ronaldo received a two-match suspension from the English FA for shattering an Everton fan’s phone in April?
Aside from that, there are still other obstacles standing in the way of the former Manchester United forward’s debut.
Before starting the Portugal captain, Al-Nassr must discharge a foreign player and obtain the Saudi Arabian Football Federation’s (SAFF) certificate of competence.
Additionally, Al-Nassr coach Rudi Garcia said that he would wait until Ronaldo was fully fit before letting him play on December 10, 2022, during Portugal’s loss to Morocco in the 2022 FIFA World Cup quarterfinal.
Prior to his eventual move to Al-Nassr, Ronaldo claimed on Tuesday that other clubs from around the world tried to sign him.
This was said by the five-time Ballon d’Or winner on Tuesday night in his first interview as an Al-Nassr player.
Nobody knows, but I can say that I had numerous offers in Europe, numerous clubs in Brazil, Australia, the US, and even Portugal sought to recruit me.
