Cristiano Ronaldo has solidified his legacy as one of the greatest players in soccer history and a transformative figure for the Middle East, achieving a remarkable milestone that Argentine star Lionel Messi could not reach with his clubs.

Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly asked Al-Nassr to sign his former teammate Casemiro from Manchester United. The Brazilian midfielder had been heavily rumored to be leaving Manchester United this January after struggling at the club over the last two seasons, with the Saudi Pro League club as the frontrunner for his next future.

Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo's rivalry dominated football for well over a decade, and their families were also involved in the fierce battle.
