Cristiano Ronaldo to MLS? Rumors rotate when he considers leaving al-Nassr

Christiano Ronaldo reportedly considered MLS in 2023 when he was looking for a new club. He missed his opportunity to make the final career move to America and instead went to Saudi Pro League.

The approaching Club World Cup is an indicator that Ronaldo can head to the team that will compete at this world event. Ronaldo is one of the biggest names in the world of sports.

Each team played by Ronaldo has gained twice the number of eyes against them. Just like Lionel Messi, Ronaldo has become a running and breathing economy, no matter in which country he is.

MLS wants to add another famous name in the league to attract more eyes and get more customers into their MLS packages through Apple TV+.

I will go through two certain teams in the World Cup, as well as the third team that might meet the requirements, and discuss what I think their chances are that they can end up with stars.

Inter Miami

I know what you think, too many stars in this team, how do they do this? The truth is that MLS will rearrange the rules and money to allow this.

I cannot imagine that Inter Miami will be a play situation that Ronaldo likes, because he has always been a star in a club that needs it with the legendary tradition. Real Madrid, Man United, and Juventus are a solid choice for him at that time.

With a list of crowded old stars who are friends and former teammates with Messi, it will not be the most suitable for Ronaldo. The biggest lottery to Miami is the weather and lottery owned by the city in a fluent Spanish speaker.

This will be the most-based team in MLS history in terms of big names. The question is, can Ronaldo and Messi override their pride to work together?

Seattle Sounders

Seattle is one of the many outstanding teams in MLS. When you think of a great team of all time, Sounders have several teams in the list.

Seattle is in the middle of the playoffs because they are seen making summer push to the western top. In the midst of their playoffs is the Club World Cup, with a special transfer window that they can use.

Seattle sounds like the main goal for players like Ronaldo; The only thing that is against them is that the weather can take them out of running to stars.

Seattle has become a popular medium city for athletes to call home when recruited in other sports. Unfortunately, the weather has prevented free agents from missing Los Angeles or New York for Seattle.

There is still a chance, if Ronaldo wants to go to America and choose an MLS club to be contacted by home, Seattle matches the bill. If they lose to one of the other World Cup teams, it is because Seattle is not seen as a place to retire in Ronaldo’s eyes.

Laftc

On May 31, we will know whether LAFC will be in the club’s World Cup, this is because the Mexican club has been removed from the World Cup for breaking the rules. For this situation, we will act as if LAFC has entered and wants to add stars to their squad to place them above.

LAFC, similar to Seattle, is in the middle of the package, sitting right in the fourth seed in the western region. It puts LAFC on the spot to offer large money during a special transfer window.

LAFC has a competitive and strong tradition, loyal fans, and is an ideal place where Ronaldo wants to retire when playing the last few years. The addition of Ronaldo will make LAFC the most talented team in the West and challenger to the instant title.

With the weather like in LA means football throughout the year at the youth level, this will be behind Ronaldo’s head when thinking about their children and their future play. If LAFC created the World Cup, they could be a challenger for one of the greatest players ever in the world.
