However, the former Real Madrid star looks very fit and is clearly happy to return to Al Nassr this week. Along with a series of photos training with Al Nassr, he wrote on Instagram: “Back where I belong”.

Although many people believe that Ronaldo’s physical condition is declining, the former MU player still shows effectiveness in the Saudi Pro League. Last season, he scored 50 goals in 51 matches and the season before that 14 goals in 19 matches. So it’s clear he still has a lot to offer Al Nassr.
