Cristiano Ronaldo shares snap via Instagram story as he undergoes Al-Nassr medical

Cristiano Ronaldo has taken to his Instagram stories to share a snap of himself undergoing medicals at Al-Nassr. The 37-year-old forward has made the switch from Manchester United after being a free agent since the FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

During the World Cup, his contract with Manchester United was terminated due to an interview he gave with Piers Morgan in which he criticized the team's coach, Erik ten Hag. The interview exacerbated already strained relations between the superstar and the club, leading the Red Devils to seek a new forward to replace Ronaldo.

Despite the tumultuous end to the forward's tenure with United, Al Nassr and manager Rudi Garcia are excited to work with him and help him return to top form.

They believe that his talent and experience make him a valuable addition to the team and are hopeful that he will make a strong impact on the pitch. The team and its supporters are also optimistic about the potential for Ronaldo to help lead them to victories.

Here is Cristiano Ronaldo's Instagram story snap:

However, according to Marca and other publications, there is a clause in his contract with Al Nassr that could see him return to Europe before the end of his career.

This clause states that if Newcastle United, which is owned by the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund, qualifies for the Champions League this season, Ronaldo could get a loan switch.
