Cristiano Ronaldo, the forward for Al-Nassr, has discussed Karim Benzema's decision to join him in the Saudi Arabia pro league.
After his relationship with Manchester United reached its lowest point, the Portuguese international made the move to Al-Nasr in January 2023. In an interview that was published on the official Football Daily Twitter account on June 8, 2023, Ronaldo stated that he had always known that his move to Saudi Arabia would encourage other European players to do the same.
When Benzema announced that he would be moving to Al-Ittihad from Real Madrid, he caused a stir in the football community. The French international signed a three-year contract that will keep him at the club until 2026. His annual salary is anticipated to be €200 million.
''I was correct when I said that going to Saudi Arabia would open a box for me. I'm certain in several years or three, this association will be perhaps of the main association on the planet. This league is certain to become one of the world's most important leagues in a few or three years. Karim left as of now and I'm 1000% certain that a lot more players will''.
Lionel Messi was also wanted by the Gulf nation, but the Argentinean player decided to join Inter Miami, an MLS team. N'Golo Kante, Riyad Mahrez, and Wilfred Zaha, however, are said to be close to joining Benzema and Ronaldo in Saudi Arabia.
