Cristiano Ronaldo has sparked speculation about his future after posting a cryptic message following a disappointing defeat with Al-Nassr.
The Portuguese star, whose contract with the Saudi club is set to expire, scored a goal against Al-Fateh on Monday, but his team’s 3-2 loss eliminated them from next season’s Asian Champions League.
After the match, Ronaldo took to social media, writing, “The chapter is over. The story? It is still being written. Grateful to all.”
These words immediately fueled rumors of a potential departure, as the 40-year-old’s message seemed filled with disappointment. While Ronaldo did not directly confirm any decision regarding his future, his statement has left many questioning whether this marks the end of his time in Saudi Arabia.
Moreover, there have been rumors suggesting Ronaldo’s interest in joining another club, possibly one participating in the upcoming Club World Cup, which will take place from June 14 to July 13. It remains to be seen if this message truly signals the end of his adventure with Al-Nassr.
