Cristiano Ronaldo ‘doesn’t control’ Al Nassr insists club CEO Guido Fienga

Al Nassr CEO Guido Fienga has insisted that Cristiano Ronaldo doesn’t control the club but revealed the Portuguese plays a crucial role for the team as a leader. Fienga’s comments came after speculations that Ronaldo holds a lot of influence at the club regarding on and off-field decisions.

Al Nassr sacked Portuguese coach Luis Castro on Wednesday after a solitary win in three league games.

At a club event on Wednesday, Fienga said: “Cristiano Ronaldo is our captain and he is the strongest player in the world not just technically but how he behaves.

“Cristiano Ronaldo doesn’t control the club but obviously, being the No. 1 in the world, he gives the direction of where we have to go and which are the targets we have to reach. He is a winner and we ask him to teach us how to win.”

Meanwhile, Ronaldo has won only one title with Al Nassr, the Arab Club Champions Cup after joining the club in 2022 from Manchester United.

The talisman has scored 62 goals for Al Nassr and he was seen in tears after the club ended the previous season without any silverware.

“He is a winner and we ask him to teach us how to win,” Fienga said of the former Real Madrid star.

“We want to win with him this year and reach the best target that we can. Cristiano is part of the team and we are very happy to have him in our team.”

Fienga is hopeful that the team will keep on improving in future matches to get the desired results.

“Step by step we will improve,” Fienga said

“This summer don’t forget we invested almost $100 million in new players. I believe we did a good job in order to reinforce the club with some good players that we needed … we need to work and give stability to the club to work and to produce the value and not destroy the value every six months.”
