Former Manchester United and Juventus star player Cristiano Ronaldo have returned the Real Madrid and he is currently using the club’s training base to keep fit after Portugal’s World Cup exit. After his contract at Manchester United was cancelled last month he is now free to join another club on 1 January.
Cristiano Ronaldo Resumes Training with Real’s Valdebebas base
Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr has made a big-money offer for the 37-year-old forward, although it is understood he has other options. The former Real Madrid player trained alone at Real’s Valdebebas base and there is no option of a return to the Spanish club.
The tournament in Qatar was expected to be Ronaldo’s last chance to win a World Cup, and he came off the bench against Switzerland and Morocco but could not prevent the African side from knocking out Portugal. The 1-0 loss to the African side Morocco in the quarter-finals could be Ronaldo’s last World Cup game and he posted on social media saying: “The dream was nice while it lasted.”
In asking Real to use their training facility rather than take a break following Portugal’s early exit, Ronaldo has given a clear indication he is ready to join a new club at the earliest opportunity.
It is not clear now if Real Madrid will re-sign him, he is the club’s leading scorer with 450 goals in 438 games, during the time which he won the Champions League four times and La Liga twice.
