Portuguese football agent Paulo Barbosa commented on about the transfer Cristiano Ronaldo to Arabia An Nasr that the Arab media are talking about.
Earlier, the Al Arabiya TV channel announced on Twitter the transfer of the Portuguese striker. According to the source, the player has signed a two-year contract. Ronaldo returned to Manchester United last summer, signing a 2+1 contract. In November, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner gave an interview in which he criticized Manchester United and former teammates. After that, it was announced that the striker left the club by mutual agreement between the parties.
– In this transition, Cristiano has two points. From an economic point of view, of course, it is a very good contract. On the sporting side, this is not what he wanted. He quit playing big football. The very fact that he will be playing in Saudi Arabia will greatly affect his place in the Portuguese national team. He failed to find a club that could give him the level he wanted in terms of big football. And at the same time with good economic conditions. Of course, it’s sad, because he’s saying goodbye to great football.
Could he play in Europe? Yes, he could play. But I will say that football is cruel to Cristiano. Considering how recent events in his career have unfolded. At Manchester United and in the national team, he made big mistakes and football has not forgiven him.
– But now he can definitely get a foothold in the top scorers list. In Saudi Arabia, it is much easier for him to score.
– Yes, but it’s one thing to remain the best in Europe. And here comes a whole other level. But on the other hand, Cristiano is a great player and has always played at a high level. Look, he is now 38, who can play at this age and level? Almost no one will succeed.
— Ibrahimovic.
– Yes exactly. He managed to solve an even bigger problem. He played in the United States, then he was able to come back to Europe and win Serie A with Milan. He is a fighter and he has the will to win. But how old is he?
– 41.
– 41, yes. A great player, but not everyone is like him…
