Cristiano Ronaldo Set to Join Al Hilal Ahead of Club’s World Cup
Cristiano Ronaldo is reportedly on the brink of joining Saudi giants Al Hilal, according to former Al-Batin president Nasser Al-Huwaidi. Al-Huwaidi revealed that the Portuguese star is close to leaving Al Nassr for their fierce rivals, with an official announcement expected soon. If finalized, the move would see Ronaldo feature in the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup.
Ronaldo’s current contract with Al Nassr runs out in June, and the 40-year-old is set to become a free agent. This would allow him to sign a short-term deal with any club, just in time for the Club World Cup. Over the past few weeks, the former Manchester United and Real Madrid forward has been linked with several teams, including Wydad Casablanca, Palmeiras, Botafogo, and Al Hilal. But Al Hilal now seems to be in pole position to land him.
Speaking with Kooora, Al-Huwaidi said Ronaldo’s arrival would give the Club World Cup a major boost and attract a massive audience. He also hinted that Al Hilal is planning to bring in three more big international signings to strengthen their squad. “Ronaldo is still performing at a higher level than Mitrovic,” he said. “I believe Al Hilal fans will be excited about his arrival, especially if he helps the club lift more trophies.”
Head coach of Atletico Madrid, Diego Simeone, speaks on team defense and called out a player who needs to toughen up. He shared that Ademola Lookman needs to work on defense.
“Ademola Lookman arrived with great enthusiasm and desire to keep growing. We need him to add defensive work to what he already gives us offensively, because he has that ability,” he then added.
“He’s shown it with the Nigeria national team, and we need him in that role.”
Former football legend Paul Merson states that Mohammad Salah is the greatest winger of all time.
While also praising Bukayo Saka for being the winger in form right now.
When asked in a recent interview, he stated “For the best right now, it’s probably [Bukayo] Saka for his all-around game. I will go Salah, because the numbers he’s put up are ridiculous.”
Former player Paul Merson shares his predictions on this weekend’s Premier League games.
He shared Leeds United vs Manchester City – Prediction: Leeds 1-1 Manchester City.
Manchester United vs Crystal Palace – Prediction: Manchester United 3-0 Crystal Palace.
Arsenal vs Chelsea – Prediction: Arsenal 1-0 Chelsea.
