Sergio Ramos is reportedly trying to bring Cristiano Ronaldo to Mexican club Monterrey. Fans are excited about the possible reunion of the former Real Madrid stars. Could this be Ronaldo’s next big move? Football world is watching closely!
Ronaldo Says Goodbye to Al-Nassr – But What’s Next?
Cristiano Ronaldo has all but confirmed that his time at Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr is over. On Monday evening, he posted a message on social media saying, “This chapter is over, but the story is not finished.” This statement has sparked a wave of excitement and speculation about where the Portuguese superstar might go next.
A Hint from FIFA Sparks Rumors
FIFA President Gianni Infantino recently added fuel to the fire by revealing that he personally heard Ronaldo might be in talks with clubs participating in the upcoming 2025 FIFA Club World Cup. This tournament is a major project for Infantino, and he wants the best footballers in the world to be part of it. Ronaldo’s name, of course, is among the most famous in football history.
Infantino’s comments have fans wondering: Could Ronaldo play in the Club World Cup before retiring?
A Shocking New Possibility – Mexico’s Monterrey!
While many fans hoped Ronaldo might return to Europe, that seems unlikely. So far, there haven’t been strong rumors about him signing with a European club. Instead, a surprising name has come up: Monterrey, a top football team from Mexico.
Italian journalist Nico Schira has reported that Monterrey is very interested in signing Ronaldo. What makes this even more exciting is that Sergio Ramos, one of Ronaldo’s closest friends from their Real Madrid days, currently plays for Monterrey. Ramos is reportedly encouraging the club to sign Ronaldo and is ready to help bring his old teammate to Mexico.
Will Ronaldo Join Just for the Club World Cup?
Right now, it’s unclear if Ronaldo would sign a long-term deal with Monterrey. One option being considered is a short-term contract just for the Club World Cup in the United States. Legally, this kind of deal is allowed. Ronaldo could play for Monterrey in the tournament and then move to another club afterward. That might suit both Ronaldo and the club.
This move would also give Ronaldo the chance to play in a competitive tournament watched by millions across the globe. It could be a powerful final chapter to his legendary career—or the start of a brand-new one.
Monterrey’s New Coach and Strong Squad
Monterrey is a strong team with a good chance of competing well in the Club World Cup. The club recently hired Domenec Torrent as their head coach after parting ways with Martin Demichelis. Torrent has experience coaching big teams and could be a great fit for managing a star like Ronaldo.
Monterrey also has several well-known players who once played in Europe, including:
- Sergio Canales
- Oliver Torres
- Lucas Ocampos
These experienced stars, along with Ramos and possibly Ronaldo, could make Monterrey a serious contender.
Ronaldo’s Motivation – Not Just Money
At this point in his career, Ronaldo might not be looking for another big paycheck. Instead, he could be motivated by legacy, pride, and the chance to compete at a high level one more time. It’s even possible that Ronaldo would play without taking a salary, just to showcase his skills on the Club World Cup stage.
Final Thoughts: Will It Happen?
Ronaldo’s next move is still uncertain. But the signs are pointing toward a thrilling possibility: the five-time Ballon d’Or winner might take his talents to Mexico, reuniting with Ramos, and shining again on the world stage. Fans everywhere are watching closely. If this move happens, it could be one of the most exciting football stories of 2025.
