According to Saudi sports commentator Duwaish, Riyadh won the contract renewal request, including replacement of the head coach and signings in a specific position. Negotiations between the two sides have broken down and Ronaldo will leave the team after the contract expires in July. Many media have also confirmed the news, but it is still unclear where Ronaldo's next home will be.

40-year-old Ronaldo has played for the team this season, contributing 33 goals and 4 assists, and there is still oil in the fuel tank.

It is understood that Saudi Public Investment Fund originally wanted Ronaldo to join Riyadh Crescent, but was rejected by the senior executives of the Crescent. They believe that Ronaldo's arrival will affect the balance of the lineup and will not enhance the team's competitiveness.

Previously, Brazilian media said that the Brazilian team Palmeiras intends to introduce Ronaldo and the two sides are in negotiations. However, Palmeiras chairman Pereira directly denied the rumors in an interview with ESPN, saying: "This is fake! I am shocked by such news! Nowadays, there are speculators selling fantasy in the transfer market, and these news are unfounded. Ronaldo has never expressed his willingness to play football in Brazil, and Palmeiras has never had any interest in introducing Ronaldo."

So where will Ronaldo play football next? Recently, the Mirror wrote an article to conduct an inventory and analysis, let’s learn about it together.

1. When Portugal Sports

joined Riyadh to win, Ronaldo made it clear that he would not return to the European arena, because "I have won everything in Europe."

But if the old boss Portuguese sports made a call, he might reconsider it. After all, this is the starting point of his career and has special significance for Ronaldo.

2. Jeddah National

Ronaldo has completely adapted to Saudi life, so it is not a problem for him to play football in another Saudi team. This season, Jeddah Nationals won the AFC Champions League title and defeated Riyadh Crescent who rejected Ronaldo in the semi-finals. They are very strong.

With Firmino likely to return to Brazil, the team will have enough space to welcome heavyweight new players. For Ronaldo, who needs to stay in shape to participate in the 2026 World Cup, joining Jeddah Nationals is a good choice.

However, it is unpredictable whether Ronaldo can coexist with the team's No. 1 scorer Ivan Tony after his arrival.

3. Los Angeles FC

Ronaldo's joining Los Angeles must be popular with fans, because in this way he can meet Messi in the American League. Although the two have passed their peak, the "low-fitting Melody Ronaldo showdown" is still attractive enough to fans.

It is worth mentioning that Giroud switched to Los Angeles from Milan last summer. However, he encountered a goal drought in 10 league games in the first half of the season, and his overall performance was far lower than the team's expectations. After Ronaldo arrives, the offensive firepower of strengthening the lineup will surely be immediate.

4. Chelsea

First of all, we need to mention that the possibility of Ronaldo returning to the Premier League is slim. But if he is willing to return, Chelsea may risk introducing Ronaldo. Chelsea likes to sign young players in long-term contracts in recent years, but young people have not had enough experience and sometimes they perform unstable.

Chelsea's offensive line does not have much talent except Jackson, and Nkunku will still have vacant after leaving the team. Previously, 40-year-old D-Silva had performed a good show for the Blues as an old horse, and now Ronaldo is not impossible.

5. When Ronaldo returned to Manchester United in 2021, he worked with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. He was also Manchester United's number one scorer that season. Now Solskjaer is Besiktas's head coach, and I believe the master and apprentice are happy to join forces again.

Immobile's contract expires one year and is frequently troubled by injuries. If they want to bring in a forward, then Ronaldo will definitely be on the shortlist. The obstacle to this transfer is that Besiktas may not be able to bear the cost of introducing Ronaldo.

Finally, which one do you think does Ronaldo join the most suitable company in the future?
