Cristiano Ronaldo subject of Turkey claim: Süper Lig possibility on the agenda
An intermediary is reported to be exploring the possibility of a move to Turkey for Cristiano Ronaldo, the 41-year-old Al-Nassr player. There is as yet no official offer or agreement for the star player.
During the transfer period, a striking claim concerning the Süper Lig has surfaced. The possibility of a move to Turkey for Cristiano Ronaldo, the 41-year-old Portuguese world star who plays for Al-Nassr, is reported to be under exploration by an intermediary. While there is as yet no official offer or agreement for the star player, preliminary soundings are said to have been taken over the terms of a potential transfer.
An intermediary is reported to have made contact with Süper Lig clubs over the idea of bringing Cristiano Ronaldo to Turkey. The initiative is said to be at an early stage, and it remains unclear for now which clubs have been approached and whether the veteran star is open to playing in Turkey.
According to studies of seasonal earnings, Cristiano Ronaldo is the world's highest-earning footballer, with total earnings of €276m. The Portuguese star is followed by Lionel Messi on €133m and Kylian Mbappé on €92m, while Erling Haaland and Vinicius Junior are also in the top five of the list.
The veteran centre-forward, who has played for Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr since 2023 and whose contract with the club runs until June 2027, recently announced his retirement from the Portugal national team. In a 23-year international career, Ronaldo scored 146 goals in 234 matches, bowing out as the holder of hard-to-beat world records for both international appearances and goals.
