Al Nassr talisman Cristiano Ronaldo is reported to leave his Saudi Pro League club in the upcoming winter transfer window to make a sensational switch to city rivals Al Hilal. The striker has been brilliant on the pitch for Al Nassr ever since landing in Riyadh.

According to the Spanish outlet SPORT, the Portuguese star is viewed as a potential replacement for injury-prone Neymar Jr, as the Saudi Arabian champions have run out of patience with the former PSG forward.

The Brazilian failed to leave a significant mark due to a knee injury which kept him out for more than a year. Therefore, It is believed that Al Hilal could offer Ronaldo a chance to switch alliances in a stunning deal in the winter transfer window.
