Jorge Jesus Says Ronaldo Has Not Won Any Official Trophy in Saudi Arabia
Al-Hilal’s manager, Jorge Jesus, has downplayed Cristiano Ronaldo’s achievements in Saudi Arabia, insisting the Portuguese star has not won any official trophy since joining Al Nassr.
Ronaldo moved to Al Nassr in 2022 after his controversial exit from Manchester United, where he had a public fallout with manager Erik ten Hag.
Since arriving in Saudi Arabia, he has been the club’s standout performer and currently leads the goal charts with 24 strikes across all competitions.
Despite his dominance on the pitch, Jesus refuses to acknowledge Ronaldo’s success. Al-Nassr famously defeated Al-Hilal in the Arab Club Champions Cup final on August 12, 2023, with Ronaldo scoring twice to seal a dramatic comeback despite his team being down to nine men.
However, critics argue that the tournament, held during pre-season, is more of a friendly than an official competition.
Speaking to Channel 11, Jesus dismissed the idea that Ronaldo has won anything in Saudi Arabia. “He’s won everything in football except the World Cup with Portugal, and he still hasn’t won anything here,” the Al-Hilal boss stated.
