Cristiano Ronaldo has reaffirmed his commitment to Saudi Arabia following Al-Nassr FC’s victory on February 21, 2026. Softfootball reports.
In a post-match interview shared by Fabrizio Romano via his official X handle, Ronaldo declared that he belongs in Saudi Arabia and wants to continue his journey there, praising the welcoming environment he and his family have enjoyed since arriving in 2022.
Romano posted:
Cristiano Ronaldo: “I belong to Saudi Arabia. I want to CONTINUE here”. “It’s a country that welcomed me, as well as my family and friends. I’m happy here and want to continue here”.
At 41, the Portuguese icon continues to defy age-related expectations. Reports of potential moves to MLS or a European return have been silenced by his commitment affirmation, supported by his prolific performances and a €200 million annual contract extension signed in 2025, cementing his status as the league’s marquee figure.
Ronaldo has now scored over 90 goals for Al-Nassr and an astonishing 501 goals since turning 30, a milestone few players achieve across entire careers.

During the recent clash against Al-Hazm FC, he once again went viral after celebrating with trademark intensity, as though it were his first professional goal.
His passion, hunger, and relentless drive remain unmistakable, reinforcing his enduring global appeal.
