The situation surrounding Cristiano Ronaldo at Al-Nassr has reached a boiling point.
Details: According to ESPN, the Portuguese superstar intends to continue his boycott and will miss his second consecutive league match. This means Al-Nassr will be without their captain for the crucial Matchday 21 clash against Al-Ittihad.
The reason behind this drastic move is a conflict between the player and club management. Ronaldo is demanding specific guarantees from the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund (PIF) regarding changes to the club's management structure. Until his demands for managerial reforms are met, Cristiano has no intention of returning to the pitch.
It is worth noting that the Saudi Pro League Matchday 21 fixture between Al-Nassr and Al-Ittihad is scheduled for Friday, February 6 at 18:30 Central European Time.
Reminder: Cristiano Ronaldo could leave Al-Nassr after the World Cup.
