Cristiano Ronaldo reaffirmed his belief in the Saudi Pro League after joining Al Nassr earlier in 2023. He envisions it as a potential top five league in the globe. Al Nassr will now put its skills on display as the Saudi club travels on a pre-season visit to Japan. They will face Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Milan in this round.
In addition to the league defeat, the Riyadh-based team was defeated in the quarterfinals of the Saudi King Cup. They also failed to qualify for the Super Cup. This resulted in Ronaldo having two trophy-less seasons following his second stint with Manchester United.
The pre-season trip against European powerhouses PSG and Inter Milan provides Al Nassr with an excellent opportunity to demonstrate its improvement and competitiveness against top-tier opponents.
