Cristiano is happy with the transfers of Benzema and Kante

Cristiano Ronaldo is delighted with the signings of Karim Benzema and N'Golo Kante in the Saudi Arabian league and hopes other European footballers will follow in their footsteps. The Portuguese striker is part of Al-Nasser, with whom Chelsea's Hakim Ziyech has also been linked. That year, the team finished second behind Al Ittihad, who responded to Ronaldo's transfer by bringing in former Real Madrid team-mate Karim Benzema as well as French international N'Golo Kante.

"I am not surprised by these transfers and I am glad that people are starting to pay more and more attention to the Saudi Arabian championship. I believe that it will continue to grow and attract even more footballers from the European championships," Ronaldo was quoted as saying. from FourFourTwo Magazine.

"Each championship is totally different from the others and I'm glad to have been part of three different championships in Europe. The biggest difference in Saudi Arabia is the heat as we have to train in the evening when it's cooler. I think that I'm already used to it".
