R<\/span>Every fan, no matter the sport, has wondered what it would be like to play with their biggest idol. In the world of soccer, it’s not just current idols like Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo that matter, but also historical figures.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the 25-year-old is living his dream and reveals what it is like to play alongside the Al Nasr captain and what he admires most about the Portuguese star. <\/p>\n

Rodrigo de Paul did this next to Lionel Messi<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

“Cristiano gives me a lot of advice.”<\/h2>\n

Ronaldo signed with Al Nasr in December 2022 after canceling his contract with Manchester United and signing a contract worth an estimated annual salary of more than 200 million yen, making him the world’s highest-paid player. His arrival in the Saudi league will revolutionize the fans and they will be able to continue to enjoy his games until 2027.<\/p>\n

Mohamed Simakan, on the other hand, used to play for RB Leipzig, but joined CR7 on a season-long loan in 2024, before staying on permanently the following year. <\/p>\n

But one of the biggest surprises he had was playing alongside the Portuguese captain, a sight he thought he would never see again.<\/p>\n

“If someone had said to me at the start of my career, ‘You’re going to play with Cristiano Ronaldo’? I would have said, ‘That’s impossible! We’re not the same age. When I started, he was nearing the end of his career,'” admitted Simakan, as shared by the X @_TheNassrZone account.<\/p>\n

Since joining Al Nasr, Mohamed has played 54 games, scoring three goals and providing three assists, 45 of which he shared with the five-time Ballon d’Or winner. As I continued to develop both in the club and as a professional, CR7 not only served as an inspiration, but also provided me with the following advice:<\/p>\n

“I won’t lie, what he brings to me in terms of discipline, work and leadership is incredible. Cristiano gives me a lot of advice,” Simakan revealed. <\/p>\n

Currently, CR7 is the league’s leading scorer and a key player on the team, but he has the potential to be much more than that. <\/p>\n

At 40, Cristiano may be in the final years of a successful career, but he has no plans to walk away from the sport that has given him so much. Instead, according to 365Scores, the Portuguese is planning to become the owner of Al Nasr. <\/p>\n

Initially, the Portuguese star will receive a 15% stake in the club (a deal worth around 50 million yen), but he is expected to gradually increase his stake. Undoubtedly, this is a new chapter for Cristiano.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
