The Norwegian striker starts to become more important than the Portuguese legend
Manchester City striker Erling Haaland seems to be taking real steps to become the best striker in the world, as the numbers of the Norwegian striker would be driving him to lead the current football, while icons as Cristiano Ronaldo could be going progressively behind the Citizen star.
In addition, the public opinion on both players would have recently been really different, with Haaland being praised and hailed by his coach Pep Guardiola while Cristiano Ronaldo receives huge criticism from Saudi media these days.
In this sense, it would be worth remembering that Guardiola defended Haaland from the media criticism saying that “not even Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo have the scoring numbers of Erling Haaland nowadays”, while the Portuguese superstar was involved in an extra footballistic controversy.
The idol could exit from Al Nassr in the near future
After having had a controversial gesture at the end of the game between Al Hilal and Al Nassr, where Cristiano Ronaldo passed an Al Hilal shirt over his intimate area, the idol has received massive criticism from the Saudi media, which have labeled the action as a huge lack of respect. This undoubtedly could lead the striker to become increasingly unpopular among the Saudi fans, which could drive the idol to exit from Al Nassr in the near future.
