Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese star, could make his return to the Champions League as soon as next season.
The former Manchester United forward left Europe and joined the Saudi league less than two years ago.
The captain of the Portuguese national team decided to take on a new challenge by joining Al Nassr’s team.
Currently, the Portuguese is shining in the colors of his club alongside other stars such as Sadio Mané, Aymeric Laporte, and David Ospina.
However, we might see Cristiano Ronaldo back in Europe starting from next season, especially in the Champions League.
The player’s name is mentioned as a target for Bayer Leverkusen for the upcoming season. Indeed, the German club, led by Xabi Alonso, is having an incredible season this year and is sure to play in the prestigious tournament soon.
For this reason, the Spanish coach is already planning to improve his squad in terms of experience, especially.
It is in this context that, according to the German newspaper Bild, Xabi Alonso would have suggested the Portuguese’s name to his club’s management.
The Spanish technician and former teammate of Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid would have personally asked his Board of Directors to sign the player.
It’s a great opportunity that could boost Bayer Leverkusen’s popularity. Additionally, to return to Europe, the Portuguese will likely have to make sacrifices in terms of his salary.
