“Al-Nassr” team forward Cristiano Ronaldo believes in the bright future of the Saudi Arabian league.

According to the Portuguese, the championships of the Middle East country could make a huge qualitative leap to the top in the near future.

“I am pleasantly surprised. The legionnaires here have exceptional abilities.

In the next 5-6-7 years, the Saudi Arabian league will become the fourth or fifth strongest in the world. Of course, if they continue to follow the current plan,” - explained the 38-year-old player.

“I play here and get minutes to show myself on the field.”

However, not all internet users liked such predictions. One of them commented on social media that the player confused the numbers and had 567 years in mind.
