They have said he is proud and boastful. Well, who will not be when you command such an influence on people. Truth be told, the Ronaldo Effect is no joke, and it follows him everywhere he goes and he himself said it. Cristiano Ronaldo has now set tongues wagging again with his recent claim saying that the Italian Serie A was dead before he joined Juventus in 2018.
According to him, the reason many high-profile players are leaving Europe and joining clubs in the Saudi Pro League was because of him.
Unfortunately, the legendary footballer's side Al-Nassr fell to Celta Vigo last night 5-0. It was after the defeat that he spoke to the Portuguese media.
It was Al-Nassr’s first match since the official commencement of the pre-season tour.
The former Real Madrid and Juventus superstar issued a defiant statement, saying, “When I joined Juventus, Serie A was dead and then after I signed… it was revived.
“Wherever Cristiano goes he generates higher interest.”
Ronaldo won four Champions Leagues, two La Liga titles, two Copas del Rey, three UEFA Super Cups and three Club World Cups with Real Madrid before signing for Juventus in a transfer worth an initial €100 million (£88 million) in 2018.
It was the most expensive transfer for an Italian club and for a player over 30 years old.
