David Ospina and Cristiano Ronaldo greeted each other now that they are new teammates at Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia. The Colombian received Cristiano in the dressing room with all the members of the club, one of the bomb signings confirmed by the Saudi team in recent days. A million-dollar purchase for CR7 who will currently be the athlete who will earn the most money per second, per hour, for literally breathing.
Although everyone wants to play with stars like Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, for David Ospina and the other foreigners from Al Nassr, the arrival of the Portuguese star is not positive at all. Yes, they will be able to enjoy themselves on the field with him, but really, not everyone will be able to play in the Saudi Arabian league next to the Portuguese in the upcoming season.
On July 11, 2022, David Ospina became a new Al Nassr player when he did not receive an offer that interested him as he did at 34 years of age who wanted to try the Saudi Arabian league. He already has more than ten games with the Saudi team, but his joy could end in the current league with Cristiano Ronaldo. And then, the future of David Ospina, just by the arrival of the Portuguese international to Arab lands could be at risk. It is not a fact that the ‘sacrificed’ is the Antioquian, but what is clear is that at least one foreigner in the squad will have his hours counted.
Cristiano Ronaldo has not even made his debut, as he has just arrived in Saudi Arabia and has been training for a short time, in addition to a sanction that would not allow him to play in the first two Al Nassr games, but in such a short time with his teammates, he sowed chaos and some foreign player will have to leave in the coming weeks. Not just weeks, as it can be days or even hours for the Portuguese to become available to Rudi García, the French coach.
The arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo, who made his teammates so happy in the greeting, means the ninth foreigner who has a contract with Al Nassr, and in the Saudi Arabian league, the maximum quota is eight foreigners per team that the regulations allow. At the moment, the places that the Saudi team has are made up of South Americans, Europeans and Africans.
David Ospina who arrived recently, Álvaro González from Spain arrived in 2022, Gonzalo Martínez from Argentina arrived in 2020, Ghislain Konan from Ivory Coast arrived in 2022, Luiz Gustavo from Brazil arrived in 2022, Jaloliddin Masharipov from Uzbekistan arrived in 2021, Anderson Talisca from Brazil arrived in 2021, Vincent Aboubakar from Cameroon arrived in 2021, in addition to the ninth foreigner, Cristiano Ronaldo from Portugal, a newcomer. One of those mentioned above, taking out CR7 will have to come out in the next few days.
