Currently, Ronaldo is facing an uncertain future at Al Nassr as his contract runs out on June 30, 2025. Despite being offered a new contract extension, the 40-year-old has yet to sign a new deal with the Saudi Pro League giants.
As he contemplates on his future, the ambitious African outfit has been linked with a potential move for the five-time Ballon d’Or winner.
Ronaldo’s performances has overshadowed the club’s trophyless campaign, scoring 33 goals and providing 4 assists in 39 appearances across competitions.
With his wealth of experience, he would be a great addition to the Wydad Casablanca squad, who are desperate to make impact at the Club World Cup.
