Al-Nassr picks Cristiano Ronaldo’s replacement
Al-Nassr has opted to fill Cristiano Ronaldo’s shoes with a 20-year-old rising star, Meshari Al-Nemer, for their upcoming two games. This decision comes in the aftermath of the 39-year-old’s red card in the Saudi Super Cup match against Al-Hilal.
Despite Al-Nassr’s appeal, which was subsequently rejected, the absence of the Portuguese megastar has been confirmed for the next two league fixtures.
Manager Luis Castro has elected to deploy Al-Nemer as Ronaldo’s stand-in, according to Essentially Sports.
Ronaldo’s dismissal occurred during Al-Nassr’s 1-2 defeat to Al-Hilal in the Saudi Super Cup semifinal. The former Manchester United forward had a forgettable outing for the Knights of Najd, as they suffered another defeat against Al-Hilal. His altercation with defender Ali Al-Bulayhi resulted in a red card, tarnishing his performance in the match.
