Cristiano Ronaldo: Could He Be Headed to the MLS?

Cristiano Ronaldo, the man, the legend, the living legend, with abs that have pushed gym goers the world over to create his physique. Now that he is dazzling (and getting paid) at Al Nassr in the Saudi Pro League, the soccer megastar might be thinking about what’s next. He still has 18 months left on his jaw-dropping contract in Saudi Arabia and with a rumor mill spinning ‘like a Ronaldo free kick’ there’s bound to be noise in the months ahead.

CR7, can he stay or will he finally make his bags and head to Major League Soccer (MLS) to reinvigorate his epic rivalry with Lionel Messi? Well, dear readers, this one is about to take a turn!

What’s Next for Cristiano Ronaldo After Al Nassr?

The football world collectively gasped when Ronaldo signed with Al Nassr, and not just for the astronomical wages. Scrooge McDuck, man, is practically swimming in gold coins. That free agent will be Portuguese superstar Ronaldo in June 2025 when his lucrative contract comes to an end.

Yes, some have claimed it’s just a matter of time before an MLS move comes. It’s the thought of Ronaldo and Messi going at it one more time, this time in the US, with hot dogs and nachos instead of Spanish tapas. The stuff of football dreams: marketing departments.

So let’s not get too far ahead of ourselves. If Ronaldo wants to conquer new frontiers, MLS makes perfect sense: Al Nassr might offer him an extension. After all, it’s not exactly unprecedented for Messi to get onto American soil, which means it shouldn’t be. It’s not OVER, folks; the GOAT debate isn’t over yet!

MLS Wants Cristiano Ronaldo—And Here’s Why It Makes Sense

A landing of Ronaldo would be a huge coup for MLS. Just imagine Beyoncé singing at your cousin’s wedding. It’s mind-boggling commercial potential.

Think about it:

Ronaldo jerseys flying off the shelves.
New York to LA, packed stadiums.
Cristiano Ronaldo Crunch, anyone? CR7-themed snacks at stadiums.
Let’s also not forget that signing Ronaldo wouldn’t cost MLS clubs a single transfer fee. But the challenge, of course, is his salary. But MLS has deep pockets and a penchant for bending reality through the power of buying contracts and making creative marketing deals. If they can even negotiate a fair deal for Messi’s gargantuan contract, they can certainly do the same for Ronaldo’s earth-shattering wage demands.

Also, imagine scenes if Ronaldo and Messi meet on American soil. For more than a decade, the two legends ruled La Liga. Seeing them square off again would be like a film sequel, with added drama, plusher hair, and more to follow.

Casemiro x Ronaldo Reunion?

As reported by Spanish outlet Marca, Ronaldo has one last bit of business on his football bucket list—Casemiro.

The pair were brought together at Real Madrid and welcomed back together again when Ronaldo returned for a second time at Manchester United. For Casemiro, that time at Old Trafford has been far from champagne and confetti. New Manchester United coach Ruben Amorim appears to be running his side without the midfielder, whose form has dipped.

Ronaldo and Casemiro could join up for a third time, right? With CR7 heading to MLS or whatever, it’s certainly a possibility. So every hero needs a sidekick, after all. Batman had Robin. Ronaldo has Casemiro.

My Two Cents: CR7 to MLS? Yes, please!

As most fans would say, a chef’s kiss moment for football if Cristiano Ronaldo joins MLS or maybe not. The U.S. transforms from touchdown celebrations to goal-scoring “Siiuuuu” chants in the stadium after stadium. The history of Ronaldo vs. Messi isn’t just football; it’s history.

Personally, I’m here for the chaos, the memes, and the glorious headlines:

“CR7 vs. Messi: The Final Showdown.”

And the payoff would be monumental: MLS might have to roll out the red carpet (and a truckload of cash). Football gods, let’s make it happen.
