The legendary star of the Portugal national team and striker of the “Al-Nasr” club, Cristiano Ronaldo, has decided not to participate in the World Cup between clubs. This was reported by renowned sports journalist and transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
According to Romano, the 40-year-old star received serious offers from many clubs to participate in the World Cup, but Ronaldo preferred not to take the field in this competition. He stated that making the decision was not easy, but ultimately emphasized that it was a personal decision for the player:
“There were indeed many offers and interests. During the negotiations, I carefully considered all the offers. However, I made the final decision personally. As a player, we must consider not only short-term interests but also medium and long-term prospects. Taking these factors into account, I decided not to participate in this competition,” said Cristiano.
Previously, reports had circulated that several clubs, particularly from the USA, Saudi Arabia, and the Asian region, had been in negotiations with Ronaldo during the preparation process for this World Cup. However, the star striker responded “no” to all offers, noting that he made this decision after serious analyses.
Following Ronaldo's decision, his absence from the club World Cup surprised many football fans. His non-participation is causing a significant stir in the global football community.
For information, the club World Cup will take place from June 15 to July 13 of this year. This prestigious tournament will feature clubs that have emerged victorious from various regions of the world, and this competition, which will turn into a grand celebration for football fans, will also be remembered for the absence of a star like Cristiano Ronaldo.
Additionally, Ronaldo is currently active at the “Al-Nasr” club in Saudi Arabia and is performing at a high level this season. He has been scoring goals in various competitions with his club, earning the applause of fans.
In any case, after Cristiano Ronaldo's decision, fans are curious about what new projects he might participate in. However, there is currently no specific information regarding his future plans.
