Gary Neville’s shocking revelation: Ronaldo came to MLS to compete with Messi

The attraction of MLS (American professional soccer league) is so great with the impact of Messi, that it is really making Ronaldo seriously consider coming here to play in the final stage of his career, Gary Neville revealed.

“All that’s left is MLS, right?”, Gary Neville asked in response to a Saudi Arabian press request to comment on Ronaldo’s future.

“Ronaldo has dominated in England, scored in Italy, he has also scored in Spain, now he is scoring in Saudi Arabia. Only MLS is left. Honestly, this guy is not stopping. But I still think he will play in Saudi Arabia until his contract expires.

After that, I wouldn’t be surprised at all if Ronaldo appeared to play in New York, Los Angeles or another big city in the US. Ronaldo really wants to finish his career in the US, he can play for a year or two, and do what he does best now, which is score goals,” Gary Neville expressed.

Ronaldo currently has a final year contract with Al Nassr Club in the Saudi Pro League (until June 2025). The 39-year-old Portuguese star is receiving a world record income of up to 285 million USD (about 7.1 trillion VND), including more than 220 million USD in salary and an additional 65 million USD from other sponsorship contracts.

However, since arriving in Saudi Arabia, Ronaldo has been scoring regularly (74 goals in 85 matches), but he has not been able to help Al Nassr win any championship titles. Recently, the Saudi press predicted that he could move to Al Nassr’s rival club Al Hilal from early 2025, to replace Neymar (most likely returning to Brazil to play).

However, this is a very low possibility, according to Marca (Spain). “Ronaldo, as revealed by Gary Neville, is only focused on playing until the end of his contract for Al Nassr, because he cannot easily give up his current generous salary.

After that, the famous player will seriously consider playing in MLS. The ideal clubs for Ronaldo to consider joining would be LA Galaxy, LAFC, NYCFC and New York Red Bulls. These are clubs with the infrastructure, market and above all, the resources to sign him,” the newspaper emphasized.

If this development happens, because Ronaldo has not yet mentioned negotiating an extension with Al Nassr, it shows that it is entirely possible that in the near future there will be a rematch between Ronaldo and Messi in the US, after many years ago these two famous players faced each other in Europe, according to Marca .
