Jorge Jesus Says Portugal Does Not Appreciate Ronaldo Like Saudi Arabia
Al-Hilal manager Jorge Jesus believes Cristiano Ronaldo doesn’t get the recognition he deserves in Portugal compared to how he is celebrated in Saudi Arabia.
Ronaldo, now in his third season in the Saudi Pro League after leaving Manchester United in 2022, has been a dominant force for Al Nassr.
While he hasn’t secured any major trophies, he has led the goal charts and significantly boosted the league’s popularity.
Despite his impact, Al Nassr has struggled to win silverware, often falling short against strong rivals like Al-Hilal and Al-Ittihad.
Jesus, who is also Portuguese, feels Ronaldo’s contributions are not fully appreciated back home.
He pointed out how Saudi Arabia embraced the football icon long before he even played there, highlighting how the country had already put him on billboards in major cities six years ago.
Speaking to Channel 11, Jesus said, “We were already friends in Portugal, and I saw him more often there than in Saudi Arabia. He’s a national pride, but in Portugal, they don’t value him as much for the image he brings.”
Nigerian footballer Victor Osimhen spoke about his childhood days and the difficult experiences he faced growing up.
He revealed that his mother was the breadwinner of the family and that her death deeply affected them.
“My mom was the breadwinner of the family, but she and my dad never had issues because of it.”
He shared that when his mother passed away, they not only missed her emotionally but also struggled financially without her support.
Fans related to his story and applauded how he has now risen to greatness.
It has been revealed that Ruben Amorim’s possible next step could be taking over as Benfica’s manager, replacing José Mourinho at S.L. Benfica.
It can be recalled that the manager was released from Manchester United F.C. in January and has since been seeking his next step.
He has now emerged as the top candidate to become Benfica’s new manager.
Rio Ferdinand has reacted to talks surrounding Xabi Alonso and the managerial position at Real Madrid.
It was reported that Xabi Alonso had signed a contract with the club to become their manager.
Ferdinand then shared his thoughts on the move “I’m genuinely surprised he’s taken that position. I’m not suggesting he’s the wrong choice.
“The reason I’m taken aback by his decision is that I thought he would have been patient enough to see how the Arne Slot situation at Liverpool would unfold.”
He explained that Alonso could have possibly become Liverpool manager with enough time and also spoke about Alonso’s love for the club.
