Ronaldo: My biggest problem at Al Nassr

Al-Nassr star Cristiano Ronaldo has opened up about the adjustment issues of arriving in Saudi Arabia.

Ronaldo has been with the Saudi Pro League club since December, when he left Manchester United by mutual consent.

The five times Champions League winner admits that moving to this league may not have gone entirely how he expected.

“The biggest difference I have found in Saudi is obviously the heat and adapting schedules to train later in the day when it is cooler," he said while working for LiveScore.

“But I have really gotten used to that now. The fans here have been incredible to me, welcoming me, and those that follow me to continue on this amazing journey.

“Every league and country is different and I am very proud to have experienced three different leagues in Europe (and won titles in them all)."
