Cristiano Ronaldo looking for a Saudi exit and wants a European return

The Portuguese legend joined Al-Nassr back in December
Five-time Ballon d'Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo wants to return to Europe, according to sources. The 38-year-old earned a lot of honours across different seasons. He has played for Sporting CP, Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus before joining the Saudi Arabia club in December.
Cristiano Ronaldo's move to Al-Nassr came as a shock to many. He joined Manchester United at the start of the 2021-22 season. After performing decently in his first season, the forward failed to make his mark under new manager Erik ten Hag. After a few controversies, the five-time Champions League winner decided to leave Old Trafford.
The 38-year-old has made a decent start to his career in Saudi Arabia. He has scored 13 goals in his first 17 appearances for the club. His side is also competing for the Saudi Pro League crown. Cristiano Ronaldo has signed a two-year deal with the club. His salary is around €200 million per year, and this deal makes him the highest-paid footballer in football's history.
Cristiano Ronaldo still holds the record for the most goals in the UEFA Champions League. He has also lifted league titles in England, Spain, and Italy. Ronaldo can still battle in Europe for a couple of seasons. With these rumours spreading, some of the teams will be monitoring his situation at Al-Nassr. The question still remains, "Where will Ronaldo end his career"?
