Despite his goal-scoring traits, Al-Nassr failed to lift the Saudi Pro League title on the last two occasions. The 40-year-old netted 25 goals in the Saudi Arabian top flight and finished at the top of the goal-scoring charts for the second successive year.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino had further teased Ronaldo's exit from Al-Nassr, insisting the player would appear in the upcoming FIFA Club World Team. But ahead of Portugal's UEFA Nations League final against Spain, he has rejected all the possibilities.

 As quoted by eminent journalist Fabrizio Romano, he said, “It’s practically decided, I will NOT BE AT THE CLUB WORLD CUP”,

“It’s almost decided that I will not take part at the FIFA Club World Cup despite receiving many invitations and proposals… the decision is almost made on my side”.

“There have been talks, contacts… but you can’t be at all competitions, you’ve to think about short, medium and long term. So despite approaches, it’s decided”.
