Currently without a club, Cristiano Ronaldo left the World Cup in the quarterfinals, but above all lost his starting place in the Portuguese workforce.

With an explanation of his own as to the sidelining of CR7.

Clarifying his point on this “political” sanction, the Turkish president explained that it is due to the fact that “Ronaldo supports the Palestinian cause”, without however developing more than that on the moment when the Portuguese would have openly supported Palestine.
Erdogan also touched on Ronaldo’s future and here too he seems to have his own sources. “According to my information, Ronaldo will be traveling to Saudi Arabia very soon. »
