Monterrey, an eminent Liga MX team, stunned global football audiences by defeating David Beckham’s Inter Miami and Lionel Messi in the Concacaf Champions Cup and is now poised to face Columbus Crew in the tournament semifinals.
Known as the Rayados, Monterrey has risen to prominence through strategic signings, including German Berterame, Jesus Corona, and Maxi Meza.
Rumours recently surfaced about Cristiano Ronaldo of Al Nassr joining Liga MX, as reported by Bolavip. However, Monterrey’s president, Jose Antonio Noriega, has dismissed these speculations.
In response to fan inquiries about Ronaldo playing in Liga MX, Noriega was definitive, stating: “No way.” He humorously suggested it might be possible if fans gathered the funds themselves.
Ronaldo, currently 39, is under contract with Al Nassr until 2025. Reports indicate he seeks to extend his stay in Saudi Arabia.
Despite Monterrey’s financial strength, competing with the Saudi Pro League’s offers for Ronaldo appears beyond reach. As per the Bolavip, the deal could potentially be the last major contract of Ronaldo’s career.
