Cristiano Ronaldo recently scored his 900th career goal, but that didn’t stop him from being criticised for missing a goal at Euro 2024. Al-Hilal midfielder Ruben Neves stood by his colleague, according to the Daily Mail.
“If you compare the data from my GPS tracker from the Saudi championship and the Premier League, you will see that I now run more distance per match, but in 40-degree heat. I think that the performance of Cristiano and I in the national team confirms the level of Saudi football,” Neves said.
Let’s also remember that Cristiano Ronaldo signed a contract with the Saudi club Al-Nasr at the end of 2022. The 39-year-old forward signed a 2.5-year employment contract. According to media reports, he earns 200 million euros a season. Ronaldo had previously admitted that he was not thinking about ending football yet. “This is not the end of my career. I broke all the records in Europe, I want to break them here too. I came here to win,” he said.
We previously wrote that Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi were not included in the Ballon d’Or nominees list for the first time in 21 years.
