Al-Nassr star Cristiano Ronaldo has invited football’s top stars to join him in the Saudi Pro League.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner scored in his team’s 4-1 win over Al Taawoun on Saturday.
The 38-year-old sits comfortably on top of SPL’s goalscoring charts with 20 goals to his name.
Ronaldo said as quoted by Tribal Football: “Next year, I will try to do the same as this year. I am happy because I made the decision to come here when no one believed in it.
“But hey, it’s the past and I don’t care. Now, the most important thing is that the championship is growing, that the players now want to come here because they know that the league is competitive.
“The whole world is watching the championship now, and I advise the big players to come here, they will be welcome.”
