As of August 19th, 2025, Cristiano Ronaldo is set to begin another season with Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr. After a disappointing previous campaign, the club has strengthened its squad with several key signings, including the high-profile acquisition of Kingsley Coman from Bayern Munich.

According to reports, Ronaldo personally pushed for Coman's signing, praising the French winger's quality and making it clear he wanted him at the club, a move that reportedly helped sway the player to join Al Nassr.

He is now set to link up with Ronaldo, Sadio Mané, and Joao Felix in a star-studded attack as Al Nassr aims for every trophy in the 2025-26 season.
