Cristiano Ronaldo played down speculation about leaving the Saudi Pro League, saying he is happy at Al-Nassr after returning from a short protest period and scoring twice in a 4-0 win that put them top. After missing three games amid frustration over league transfer dynamics and reported contract clauses, Ronaldo returned and delivered a brace. Post-match, he focused on chance creation, a clean sheet, and the importance of winning, while continuing his chase for major silverware and the 1,000-goal milestone.
