Al-Nasr wanted to postpone the Champions League match due to the threat of life of Ronaldo
The Saudi football club Al-Nasr wanted to postpone the match of the 1/8 finals of the Asian Champions League against the Iranian Estagul from Tehran to another city due to the threat of the life of the striker Kristian Ronaldo reports Daily Mail.
According to the source, Al-Nasr made a similar request to the Asian Confederation of Football, since the last match in Tehran, which was held on September 3, 2024, ended with a scandal. Then Iranian law enforcement officers dispersed hundreds of fans who wanted to get to the hotel where Ronaldo stopped.
The Asian Confederation of Football rejected Al-Nasra’s request. The match will be held on March 3 at the Azadi stadium. The participation of Ronaldo in the meeting will be announced later.
The Portuguese moved to Al-Nasr on December 30, 2022. The forward contract is designed for two years. His salary in the club is 200 million euros per year, making it the highest paid athlete of the world.
