Cristiano Ronaldo publicly expressed his support for Rúben Neves, the Portuguese player who plays in Saudi football, criticizing the lack of limits in the Saudi Arabian championship. The Al-Nassr forward stated that the incidents involving his compatriot exceeded what is acceptable in sport.
Through social media, Ronaldo stated that what happened "is no longer football", sending a clear message that limits must be established to protect players from violent or uncontrolled situations.
The Portuguese player showed solidarity with his national teammate, suggesting that the Saudi League should intervene and take concrete measures to prevent similar situations from occurring again in the championship.
This statement from Ronaldo comes at a time when Saudi football has been marked by controversial episodes, with several international players playing in that league expressing concern about on-field violence.
