US EditionFIFA President Cites 'Discussions' for Ronaldo to Play in Club World Cup
- FIFA president Gianni Infantino indicated that Cristiano Ronaldo could participate in next month's Club World Cup in the United States by joining one of the competing teams, despite his current club Al Nassr not securing a spot in the tournament.
- This possibility exists because FIFA approved a unique transfer window allowing last-minute signings for all 32 participating teams from June 1-10.
- Ronaldo, 40, is in discussions to join one of the 32 teams, with speculation linking him to clubs like Al Hilal and Palmeiras, while Wydad is banned from new signings.
- Infantino told streamer IShowSpeed that there is a possibility Cristiano Ronaldo could participate in the Club World Cup, and FIFA is working to assist clubs and players with ending contracts in a way that supports their involvement in the tournament.
- If signed, Ronaldo would join Lionel Messi in the tournament for the first occasion following their meeting at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, potentially enhancing the event's appeal and ticket demand.
