‘This Chapter Is Over’, Ronaldo Hints At Al Nassr Exit After Defeat
Cristiano Ronaldo has hinted that he may be leaving Saudi club, Al Nassr with a cryptic message posted on X.
Ronaldo, after his team suffered a 3-2 defeat to Al Fateh on Monday, posted, “This chapter is over. The story? Still being written. Grateful to all.”
This statement comes as Ronaldo’s contract with Saudi club Al-Nassr approaches its end this summer.
The timing of his message has fueled rumors about a potential departure from the club.
This chapter is over.

Cristiano Ronaldo netted his 25th goal of the season during yesterday’s match, bringing his tally to 99 goals for Al Nassr, but his efforts were insufficient to secure victory.
Despite leading at one point, Al Nassr’s defense faltered, allowing Al Fateh to capitalize and clinch the win.
This loss, coupled with Al Hilal’s triumph over Al Qadsiah, eliminated Al Nassr from Champions League contention.
Their remaining hope for continental competition hinges on Al Ittihad winning the King Cup, which would grant Al Nassr a spot in the secondary AFC tournament.
However, Ronaldo, in the post, hinted that he is not ready to retire even if he leaves Al Nassr.
He wrote, “The story? Still being written.”
Meanwhile, Ronaldo and Al Nassr have yet to release an official communication about the duo’s relationship and future.
