Cristiano Ronaldo wanted to play in the UEFA Champions League, but no team competing in Europe’s most prestigious competition wanted to sign the veteran Portuguese. So, he’s taken the second-best option: a pile of cash in Saudi Arabia. But some Arab outlets claim that he has a plan B to return to the UCL.##NAJAVA_MECA_6917009##Apparently, Ronaldo has a clause in his contract allowing him to move to St. James’ Park on loan should the Magpies finish in one of the top-four places in the Premier League. It’s suspected that such deal was arranged because of Newcastle United’s Saudi connections.Israeli website One refers to their sources in Saudi Arabia, saying that Ronaldo wanted the clause to remain a secret, but it’s now out in the open. Of course, we haven’t got a confirmation that the clause indeed exists, but we wouldn’t dismiss those claims – knowing how passionate CR7 is to improve his already-impressive Champions League tally.🚨Reports are stating that Cristiano Ronaldo’s contract contains a clause for him to go on loan to Newcastle in July if the English team ends the season in Champions League positions. They are currently in third place in the table. pic.twitter.com/ehS7FMSAGo— Sports Hub ZA (@SportsHub_ZA) December 31, 2022 Providing the reports are true, Newcastle’s boss Eddie Howe would still have to decide to bring in the Portuguese. However, his big ego and a history of disrupting harmony among teammates would make his arrival a potentially dangerous one for the young tactician.Whatever happens, we’ll keep following Ronaldo’s situation.
