Which current Saudi Arabian club does Ronaldo play for?

Cristiano Ronaldo plays for Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr.

Al-Nassr, also written Al Nassr, is based in Riyadh and competes in the Saudi Pro League. Ronaldo joined the club in December 2022 after leaving Manchester United. His arrival was one of the biggest transfers in Saudi football history and helped bring global attention to the league.

The club’s name means “victory” in Arabic. Al-Nassr was founded in 1955 and traditionally wears yellow and blue. Ronaldo wears the number 7 shirt and serves as the club’s captain. His move also helped encourage other internationally recognised players to join Saudi Arabian clubs.

The main mix-up is with Al-Hilal, Al-Ittihad and Al-Ahli, which are also prominent Saudi Pro League teams. They are rivals or league competitors, not Ronaldo’s current club. Ronaldo previously played for Sporting CP, Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus before returning briefly to Manchester United and then moving to Saudi Arabia.
