Cristiano Ronaldo Will Return to Al-Nassr Despite Newcastle Rumors: 'I Am Happy Here'

Cristiano Ronaldo will not leave Al-Nassr this summer and intends to play for the Saudi Arabian club next season, he said Thursday.

However, the Portuguese international did acknowledge the need for the Saudi Pro League to improve if it hopes to become one of the world's best.

Ronaldo said in an interview with the Saudi Pro League, via ESPN's Mark Ogden:

"The league is very good. But I think we have many, many opportunities to still grow. The league is competitive. We have very good teams, very good Arab players, but they need to improve a little bit more the infrastructure.
