Ronaldo's club Al Nassr banned from signing new players until Leicester City debt is paid

July 14 - Saudi club Al Nassr, where Cristiano Ronaldo now plays, has been banned by FIFA from registering new players until they settle a dispute with Leicester City in England.

Leicester, who sold Nigerian winger Ahmed Musa to the nine-time Saudi champions in 2018, filed a claim two years ago for an unpaid payment of £390,000.

Musa, who played 62 times for Al Nassr, left the Riyadh-based club in 2020 and played last season with Sivasspor in Turkey.

“The relevant bans will be lifted as soon as the settlement of the debts has been confirmed by the relevant creditors,” FIFA said.

Al Nassr, who finished second in the league last season after signing Ronaldo in January, added Croatian star Marcelo Brozovic to his squad earlier this summer from Inter Milan but will not be able to register other recruits until they sort things out. with Leicester - including the potential signing of Hakim Ziyech from Chelsea.
