Cristiano Ronaldo’s comments from 2015 go viral again following Al-Nassr move. Ronaldo will almost certainly see out his career in the Saudi Arabian Pro League. The Portuguese footballer never wanted that to happen, though.
An interview that Ronaldo gave on the Jonathan Ross Show back in 2015 has gone viral following his transfer. Ronaldo stated that his intention was to finish his career at the ‘top level’ and said he didn’t want to finish in a country like USA or Qatar or in a city like Dubai.
Ross asked Ronaldo: “When you start moving on from this level of your career, would you go and play for an LA team or a team elsewhere?” “In my mind, I want to finish at the top level. I want to finish with dignity at a good club,” Ronaldo replied. “That doesn’t mean to go to a place like USA, Qatar or Dubai is not good, but I don’t see myself…”
Ross then interjected: “You wouldn’t want that for you…”
Ronaldo quickly replied: “No.”
