A bombshell report claims Cristiano Ronaldo could LEAVE Al Nassr for a rival club as part of a sensational swap deal.
Ronaldo started the Saudi Arabia trend following his blockbuster move from Manchester United to Al Nassr back in 2022.
Since leaving European football for the Middle East, a host of other stars have made the switch, including Karim Benzema, N'Golo Kante and Roberto Firmino to name but a few.

Not to mention Neymar, who signed for Al Hilal in a deal worth up to £86.3 million.
But his spell at the club has been riddled with injuries, restricting him to just seven appearances.
It appears Al Hilal are set to cut their losses, with reports claiming the club want to get rid of him in January.

According to Action Ma3 Waleed via Spanish outlet SPORT, Al Hilal are open to parting ways with the superstar forward when the transfer window reopens.
He's contracted until 2025 but the Saudi side hope to come to an agreement ahead of a seismic departure.
Al Hilal are 'dreaming' of replacing the Brazilian with Ronaldo, who has enjoyed an ultra-prolific spell in Saudi Arabia since his transfer.

The 39-year-old, like Neymar, is contracted until 2025, meaning Al Hilal could pull off a sensational free transfer once the Portuguese's existing contract expires.
Speaking in the summer, he hinted at finishing his iconic career in Saudi Arabia.
"I don't know if I'll finish soon or in two or three years. But, possibly, it will be at Al Nassr. It's the team where I'm happy, where I'm good, where I feel good, both in the country and in the league," he said. "That's why, most likely I can finish my career at Al Nassr. I'm very happy to play in the Arab League and I want to continue."
