Cristiano Ronaldo urges Al Nassr to make '£1 million-per-week' offer to Premier League star that would stun the football world

Cristiano Ronaldo believes a Manchester City player could help Al Nassr to success if he joined the Saudi Arabian side

Cristiano Ronaldo has urged Al Nassr to offer a huge sum for a Premier League player in a transfer that would stun fans.

The former Manchester United, Juventus and Real Madrid man has taken to life well in Saudi Arabia since his exit from United in 2022.

Currently, his side sits fourth in the Saudi Pro League after three wins and two draws in which the Portuguese has scored four times.

Last season, they missed out on silverware, but the five-time Ballon d'Or winner believes one player could change their fortunes.

It is reported that Ronaldo has urged his club to sign Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne in a deal which could see the Belgian earn a whopping £1m per week, according to the Mirror.

The 39-year-old believes Al-Nassr should take advantage of his contractual situation, with De Bruyne’s current deal set to expire at the end of the 2024-25 season.

De Bruyne has struggled for fitness lately and has been left out of Belgium’s latest international squad after a thigh/hamstring injury.

So far this term, the midfielder has missed key league clashes with Arsenal and Newcastle United.

Injuries have stagnated De Bruyne’s plans in recent seasons; last term, he was out from August to December with a hamstring issue.

As he approaches his 34th birthday, it could make sense for both City and De Bruyne if they were to part company. However, no concrete interest from Al Nassr has been confirmed.

Belgium boss Domenico Tedesco also confirmed De Bruyne has requested to miss November’s international fixtures with Italy and Israel.

"I had a long phone conversation with Kevin," said Tedesco.

"He has asked to skip this camp and also November, to be able to take care of his body.

"The schedule has become even busier due to the World Cup for clubs. That is why he is not there now and in November. But when it really counts - the World Cup - he will be there."

It is unclear if De Bruyne would be open to a move away from City, but in September of this year, he did not deny being open to a move to Saudi Arabia.

"At my age, you have to be open to everything. You talk about unbelievable amounts in what may be the end of my career. Sometimes you have to think about that,” he explained.
