“Earns 400 thousand euros a day and goes on strike”, former footballer ‘blasts’ Cristiano Ronaldo

Former England striker Alan Shearer has criticized Cristiano Ronaldo’s behavior, describing it as inappropriate for his level and status.

Earlier, the Portuguese striker missed the league match against Al-Riyadh, which his team won 1-0. It was also reported that he did not take part in training after that match.

Before this, it was reported that Ronaldo is unhappy with the way Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) is managing his club compared with its rivals, particularly Al-Hilal. There were also reports that the Portuguese was against Karim Benzema’s transfer to Al-Hilal, considering it “harmful to competition”.

Shearer has also commented on developments in the Saudi League, criticizing Ronaldo for being paid too much and deciding to go on “strike”.

“Not many people earn more than 400 thousand euros a day and decide to go on strike. It must be nice to say you’re not going to work, regardless of how much money you earn”.

“When you think about it, it seems strange. He is a superstar, but a strike at that level looks bad”, he said.

Meanwhile, Ronaldo has also refused to play against Al Ittihad, and it is not known how long he will maintain this stance.
