Here’s a statement from Al Nassr who apparently considered it inappropriate for the Saudi Pro League club to stand close to Ronaldo in the dressing room and imitate Messi’s 2022 World Cup celebration. It’s disrespectful to this person.
Below is the full Al Nassr post on the official Al Nassr account (formerly Twitter), but we also have AS’s translation, which provides more context to this rather ridiculous story.
The statement read: “We would like to point out that Al Nassr Club has always welcomed visitors, fans and supporters. Throughout its long history, our doors have been open to all. However, recently in the dressing room at First Park Stadium, the personal (irresponsible) behaviour of some individuals who did not appreciate the importance of the team they represent and the traditions of the club was disrespectful to our fans.
We would like to clarify that Al Nassr Club has instructed the relevant internal departments to deal with the matter immediately to ensure respect for the moral, ethical and material rights of the club. We confirm that our doors and facilities remain open to all fans as long as they adhere to appropriate behaviour.
Overall, it seems that the club is exaggerating a bit when looking at the original image that sparked this interaction…
It is clear that Ronaldo is the star of Al Nassr, as the Portuguese international moved to the Saudi Professional League after his contract with Manchester United expired, paving the way for many other great players to move to the Saudi Professional League.
Ronaldo has contributed to the development of football in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, so it is not surprising that they take his presence at the club seriously, but a light-hearted joke like this should not be That much is important.
Of course, the rivalry between Messi and Ronaldo is well documented, but there has always been a great deal of mutual respect between the two, so something like this seems to come out of nowhere.
