Tehran - BORNA - Al Nassr, boosted by high-profile signings including João Félix, has delivered a strong start to the season. On Friday night, the Riyadh-based club secured its fourth consecutive win of the campaign with a 2-0 triumph over Al Ittihad in Jeddah — a highly anticipated clash between Ronaldo and Karim Benzema. Ronaldo shone in the match, scoring one of the goals and leading his side in a statement performance.
According to Sport, Ronaldo spoke after the match in a conversation with his former Manchester United teammate Rio Ferdinand. When Ferdinand described Al Nassr as the main title contender, Ronaldo responded cautiously: “We are calm and we go game by game.”
With the arrival of players such as João Félix, Kingsley Coman, and Iñigo Martínez, along with the appointment of renowned Portuguese coach Jorge Jesus, Al Nassr is being positioned not only as the frontrunner for the Saudi Pro League title but also as a leading candidate to lift the AFC Champions League trophy.
