Cristiano Ronaldo has reiterated his dedication to Saudi Arabia following Al-Nassr FC’s win on February 21, 2026, according to Softfootball.
In a post-match statement shared by Fabrizio Romano on his official X account, Ronaldo expressed his feelings of belonging in Saudi Arabia and his desire to continue his career there, highlighting the welcoming atmosphere for him and his family since their arrival in 2022.
Romano shared:
Cristiano Ronaldo: “I belong to Saudi Arabia. I want to CONTINUE here”. “It’s a country that welcomed me, as well as my family and friends. I’m happy here and want to continue here”.
At 41, the Portuguese star continues to challenge expectations related to age. Speculation about moves to Major League Soccer or a return to European football has been quelled by his recent statement, reinforced by his outstanding performances and a contract extension worth €200 million per year signed in 2025, solidifying his place as the league’s leading figure.
Ronaldo has achieved more than 90 goals for Al-Nassr and an impressive total of 501 goals since reaching the age of 30, a feat few players reach in their entire careers.

During a recent match against Al-Hazm FC, he once more captured attention by celebrating with notable fervor, reminiscent of scoring his first professional goal.
His enthusiasm, desire, and unwavering determination continue to shine through, reaffirming his enduring appeal across the globe.
