The career of world football legend Cristiano Ronaldo may take an unexpected turn. The 40-year-old Portuguese star is ready to change his team once again to participate in a new competition.
The Club World Cup, which is being organized by FIFA in a new format, has aroused great interest among many star players, including Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. Unlike Messi, Ronaldo, who currently plays for the Saudi Arabian team Al-Nasr, does not have the opportunity to participate in this prestigious competition.
Therefore, there are reports that the Portuguese star will sign a short-term contract with a team that will participate in the Club World Cup. FIFA will open a special transfer window from June 1 to 10, and it is at this time that Ronaldo's sensational transfer may take place.
According to Arab journalist Nasser Jabbar (Sport Bible), Cristiano Ronaldo may participate in this tournament as part of the Manchester City club. The "City" is also not averse to using the services of the world's most famous player on a one-month contract. London's Chelsea also expressed its readiness to sign a short-term contract with the Portuguese star.
If this transfer takes place, an interesting event will also happen for Uzbek football fans. Our national team defender Abdukodir Khusanov may play alongside Cristiano in the Manchester City team. This will give him the opportunity to become the second Uzbek player after Jaloliddin Masharipov to play for the same club as Ronaldo.
Recall that Jaloliddin Masharipov played with Ronaldo in the Al-Nasr team and presented his number 7 to the famous star. Later, their paths diverged, and Masharipov went to the Iranian championship.
The new format of the Club World Cup will be held in the United States from June 15 to July 13, 2025. The tournament will feature 32 of the world's strongest teams. The prize fund of the competition is expected to exceed one billion dollars.
Manchester City will play against Italian Juventus, Moroccan Wydad and UAE Al Ain in the group stage.
What do you think: will Cristiano Ronaldo shine on the world stage again? Isn't playing on the same field with Khusanov a dream situation?
