Al Nassr could soon surprise the media and the fans after snubbing one of the main requests made by their main superstar, the Manchester United former player Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese striker, who recently urged his club to sign one of his favorite players from the Red Devils, could be finally ignored by the Saudi institution, which would have very different plans for the January transfer market.

According to the English journal The Sun, Cristiano Ronaldo would have recently asked his club for signings to improve the squad for the second part of the season, when the Portuguese superstar would have the main goal of achieving the Saudi Pro League title despite being currently second in the table seven points behind Al Hilal, the leader of the competition with 15 games remaining.

In this sense, and following these sources, Cristiano Ronaldo would have urged Al Nassr to sign Diogo Dalot and Casemiro from Manchester United, and the Saudi club would be ready to partially ignore the requirements made by their superstar, as the institution would prefer to sign other players.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s preferences wouldn’t be considered

According to these sources, the Saudis will try to take Casemiro's £375,000-a-week salary off United's wage bill after a difficult campaign for the Brazilian, while they would prefer to sign Wan-Bissaka instead of Cristiano Ronaldo’s compatriot Diogo Dalot, given that the English Congolese right back wouldn’t have extend his contract yet with United, a decision which could enraged Cristiano in the next few weeks.
