Cristiano Ronaldo has finally explained why he’s staying put at Al Nassr. He said his main focus is to stay in top shape for next year’s FIFA World Cup and to be ready for the new season with his club. Ronaldo revealed that he got offers to play at the ongoing FIFA Club World Cup but turned them down. According to him, the best decision was to get enough rest and prepare properly for what lies ahead.

Speaking after extending his contract with Al Nassr until 2027, Ronaldo explained, “I had some offers to play the Club World Cup but I felt it didn’t make sense. I’d rather rest well and prepare because the coming season is going to be long and we have the World Cup at the end of it.”

He added that staying at Al Nassr wasn’t just about comfort but because he believes in the club’s project and wants to be ready for both his team and his country.
