REVEALED: Cristiano Ronaldo’s role in Wojciech Szczesny’s imminent Al-Nassr move
Cristiano Ronaldo is said to have played a role in convincing Wojciech Szczesny to move to Al-Nassr this summer.
The 34-year-old Juventus goalkeeper is expected to depart the Serie A side after nine seasons, with the Old Lady keen to sign Michele Di Gregorio from Monza.
Szczesny will reportedly put pen to paper on a two-year €19m per year contract at the Saudi-based club where he will be reunited with former Bianconeri teammate Ronaldo.
According to Tuttosport, the Portuguese legend reached out to the goalkeeper to sell the move to the former Arsenal shot-stopper, his colleague for three seasons in Turin.
What comes next?
Ronaldo and Szczesny are with the Portugal and Poland squad, respectively, for the imminent European Championship in Germany this summer.
