CRISTIANO RONALDO TOLD WHICH CLUB TO BUY – AL-NASSR STAR TIPPED TO EMULATE RYAN REYNOLDS & ROB MCELHENNEY AS OWNER
Al-Nassr Star Urged to Become Owner of Madeira-Based Club in Emotional Homecoming
Cristiano Ronaldo has been advised to follow in the footsteps of Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney by purchasing his boyhood club CD Nacional, with former teammates and business experts suggesting the Al-Nassr superstar could revolutionize Portuguese football with his ownership.
The 39-year-old, who began his career at Nacional in Madeira before joining Sporting CP, has the financial power and global influence to transform the second-tier Portuguese side into a competitive force—mirroring Hollywood owners’ impact at Wrexham.
Why Ronaldo Should Buy CD Nacional
1. Emotional Connection
🏠 Started his career there at age 12
💙 Club icon – Could rename stadium after himself
🇵🇹 Boost Portuguese football’s profile
2. Commercial Potential
💰 CR7 brand integration – Merchandise, sponsorships
📈 Global attention like Wrexham – Docuseries opportunity
✈️ Tourism appeal – Madeira is Ronaldo’s hometown
3. Affordable Investment
💵 Club valued under €10m – Pocket change for CR7
🔄 Could partner with Reynolds/McElhenney
The Obstacles
❌ Ronaldo still playing – Focus on Saudi/Al-Nassr
⚠️ Limited time for hands-on ownership
🔄 Would need trusted executives to run club
