Tiktukno: summary of today's events in sports, 12.21 (Sport1)
Although it seems that Cristiano Ronaldo is not really keen on joining Saudi Arabia's Al Nasser, the Spanish AS claim that the sides are getting closer for the simple reason that CR7 has not received any concrete offer from a major European league.
Not even once.
Since the 37-year-old striker left Manchester United there have been reports of interest from teams such as Marseille, Napoli and Chelsea, but the sad truth for him is that even if there were talks - they did not develop into offers.
That is, there were no offers rejected by Ronaldo because they were not high enough or those that were not accepted due to contract conditions.
There are simply no offers from Europe.
According to "AS" there is only one other serious group besides Al Nassar and that is Al Saad from the United Arab Emirates.
Ronaldo has "disappeared" from view with a long (relative) silence on social media since Portugal's elimination from the 2022 World Cup. He is a free agent and therefore in no rush.

In "Marka" Shalom wrote in the same spirit that "what seems clear at the moment is that the football world has turned its back on him - at the very least, the teams he wanted to play for".
The legendary former soccer player Luther Matthews even said in an interview to "Bild": "It's hard for me to see him finding his place in any team right now. I feel sorry for him."
Meanwhile in El Nasser they are waiting and waiting.
French coach Rudy Garcia said about a week ago: "I think any coach would be happy to coach a big star like Cristiano Ronaldo. I always believed that the giant players are the ones who are the easiest to coach because they are very intelligent. That's what I had with Francesco Totti in Rome."
