Cristiano Ronaldo has stirred up major buzz after sharing a cryptic post late Monday night, hinting that his time with Al Nassr might be coming to a close.
“This chapter is over. The story? Still being written. Grateful to all,” he wrote on 𝕏 — a short but striking message that’s got fans and football circles talking.
The post landed just hours after Al Nassr suffered a 3-2 defeat to Al Fateh on May 26, 2025 — a result that dashed their hopes of making it into the AFC Champions League.
Even with Ronaldo netting his 25th goal of the season (bringing him to 99 for the club), it wasn’t enough to salvage the match. Defensive slips allowed Al Fateh to snatch the win, while Al Hilal’s victory over Al Qadsiah sealed Al Nassr’s fate.
At this point, the only way Al Nassr can still qualify for continental competition is if Al Ittihad wins the King Cup, which would open a path into the AFC’s second-tier tournament.
As his contract approaches its end this summer, Ronaldo hasn’t said anything further — and neither has the club — but his message is fueling speculation about what’s next.
At 40, the football legend has left his mark at clubs like Sporting CP, Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus, not to mention his historic journey with Portugal’s national team.
He recently crossed two major milestones: his 900th career goal and his 1,200th professional appearance. No matter what comes next, his legacy is already carved in stone.
