Cristiano Ronaldo potentially signing for Wrexham is 'not impossible', it has been claimed.

The football legend is currently playing for Saudi Pro League side Al Nassr at the age of 39.

His contract with the club is due to expire in 2025.

Speaking in August, Ronaldo indicated that he wanted to continue playing for Al Nassr for another 'two or three years'.

He told NOW: "I don't know if I will retire soon, in two or three years, but probably I will retire here at Al Nassr."

Wrexham, meanwhile, are currently playing in the third tier of English football following two consecutive promotions under the management of Phil Parkinson.

The Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney-owned Welsh club are currently second in League One after 10 matches, although have played a game more than their nearest rivals.

The idea of even considering signing Ronaldo for Wrexham appears far-fetched - unless they earn promotion to the Premier League - but there may be a possibility of it happening.

That is according to former Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham defender William Gallas, who says that 'anything is possible' in football.

He told Prime Casino: "Anything is possible in football in the modern game. It wouldn't surprise me, because money talks and we've seen that nothing impossible these days.

"Footballers and football clubs are now obsessed with their brands too and their sponsors. You can make a lot of money, and not just from your wages at your club.

"Now, everything is about social media and having millions of followers. Both Wrexham and Cristiano Ronaldo have huge profiles, so why not?

"Cristiano Ronaldo is more than just a footballer. He's a product, and he's also still scoring so many goals on the pitch.

"There will be so many clubs still happy to have him."
