CRISTIANO RONALDO BUILDING A SUPERTEAM AT AL NASSR?
After sealing the high-profile signing of João Félix — one of Europe’s most technically gifted attackers — Cristiano Ronaldo is reportedly setting his sights on another Premier League talent: Spanish international Marc Cucurella .
According to Marca, the 39-year-old Al Nassr talisman isn’t just satisfied with his team’s current trajectory — he wants to transform the club into a dominant powerhouse, both in the Saudi Pro League and across Asia. And he’s not shy about influencing the club’s transfer strategy.
Ronaldo’s desire to bring in Cucurella highlights his strategic mindset. The Spanish full-back, who has experience at top-flight clubs like Chelsea and Brighton, is known for his pace, work rate, and ability to support both defense and attack. His versatility — capable of playing as a wing-back, full-back, or even in midfield — makes him a perfect piece in Ronaldo’s vision of a balanced, high-tempo squad.
Why Cucurella?
Cucurella offers qualities that are often hard to find in the current Saudi League:
- European tactical discipline
- Technical ability under pressure
- Experience against world-class opposition
With Félix already providing flair and creativity in attack, Ronaldo seems intent on building a squad that blends style with structure, ensuring Al Nassr isn’t just entertaining — but also tactically sound and hard to beat.
“He wants to collect everything next season”
That phrase, attributed to Ronaldo by Marca, says it all. He’s not in Saudi Arabia just for headlines — he’s here for silverware, records, and long-term impact. Whether it’s the league title, AFC Champions League glory, or individual brilliance, CR7 is preparing for an all-out assault on every available trophy.
With Saudi clubs heavily backed by ambitious investment and government support, Ronaldo’s recruitment campaign may only be just beginning. João Félix and Cucurella could be the opening pieces of what may become a Galáctico-style rebuild in Riyadh.
