Jesus digs in Cristian Ronald because of the drought of the al-Nassr trophy

Jorge Jesus had fun to Cristiano Ronaldo, reminding his colleagues of Portuguese that he had not yet won a major trophy in Saudi Arabia.

Ronaldo, who turned 40 last week, enjoyed his career filled with silver products, winning seven league titles through spells with Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus, as well as five Crowns of the Champions League and Euro 2016 with his country.

Add five d’Or balloons and maybe you can understand why Ronaldo is seen as the greatest player of all time.

Saudi success has so far invented him after in 2023 after his move to Al-Nassr.

Former sports CP and Benfice chief Jesus did better, returning to the second magic in Al-Hilala in July 2023 and immediately won the PRO League title.

Everything Ronaldo has managed is barely acknowledged by Arab club champions.

Jesus full of admiration to Ronald

Nevertheless, Jesus remains a big fan of Ronald and what he did to play.

He said to Canal 11: “We don’t have time for meetings in Saudi Arabia. We were already friends in Portugal. I met him several times in Portugal than in Saudi Arabia. He is a reference, the pride of the Portuguese.

“The first time I arrived here, they knew Ronald, not Portugal. Bilbordi only showed Ronaldo in the middle of the city, which was six years ago. In Portugal, he doesn’t appreciate him so much for the picture he brings.”

‘Still has not won anything in Saudi Arabia’

Jesus, who is now 70 years old, accepts that it is unlikely that he will manage Ronald, since they both come to the end of their careers and could not resist a little digging at the expense of the attacker.

He added, “Working with him? I don’t think it will be possible anymore. He is an example at the age of 40. In one of the last games we played, I said,” How is he running so much at 39, he is fast and super motivated? “

“He misses nothing. He won everything in sports, the only thing he was not the winner of the World Cup with the national team, and still won nothing in Saudi Arabia!”

Al-Nassr are third in Pro-League, six points behind second-placed al-hilala. Ronaldo and Co are next in action on Thursday when they face Al-Ahli.
