Former Bayern Munich star Gustavo has admitted that Cristiano Ronaldo’s presence at Al Nassr has made each match more difficult.
The Brazilian player also pointed out that Ronaldo inspires the opponents as they are always fully motivated to play against him.
While recognising the impact of Ronaldo in the team, Gustavo did not hesitate to note that Al Nassr have had it more tough since he joined in December, 2022.
“Certainly the presence of Cristiano makes it difficult for us as all teams seek to participate against him in the best possible way, and he gives motivation to everyone [on the opposition],” he said.
“His presence at Al-Nassr gives a great advantage to the group because we learn from him everyday, given the great capabilities he possesses, both technically and physically. Cristiano Ronaldo was created for challenges and he always succeeds in them. And everyone here is waiting for what he will present. He has already scored his first goal, and he therefore got rid of the pressure,” he added.
Some fans are worried that Ronaldo has only registered one goal since he joined the Saudi club and it is from the penalty spot.
