Reveals other behind-the-scenes: Cristiano Ronaldo is boycotting Al Nassr because of salaries

Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund has not only failed to make new investments in Al Nassr and other rival clubs, but there are now also reports of delays in the payment of salaries.
In these circumstances, Cristiano Ronaldo's boycott of Al Nassr matches could continue. The Portugal captain is said to be aware that there has been no change in the Saudi fund's approach, to the point that, following the lack of investment in the market - especially compared to rivals such as Al Hilal - significant delays in the payment of players' salaries have now also come to light.
According to "A BOLA", Cristiano Ronaldo will wait for the situation to be resolved before returning to the competition. If the problem is resolved in time, he could be ready for Jorge Jesus this Friday, precisely in the match against Al Ittihad, a team managed by Sergio Conceiçao.

On the contrary, if the salaries are not paid, the Portuguese are expected to continue the boycott, further deepening the crisis at Al Nassr.
A large portion of Al Nassr's team workers have reportedly not been paid for a period, which has further angered the five-time Ballon d'Or winner.
Meanwhile, Nassr remains in the title race – ranking in second position with 46 points, one less than leaders Al Hilal.Telegrafi
