Rumors about Cristiano Ronaldo and Botafogo: Possible signing for the Club World Cup?
Botafogo coach Renato Paiva has reacted to rumors about a possible offer for Cristiano Ronaldo to join the team. The Portuguese star could have the opportunity to participate in the Club World Cup.
The tournament will be held in the United States from June 14 to July 13, and will feature the participation of Brazilian teams such as Fluminense, Flamengo, and Palmeiras.
According to reports, Cristiano Ronaldo has received an attractive proposal from a Brazilian club, which would allow him to play in the Club World Cup.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s contract with Al Nassr ends on June 30.
“Christmas is in December… But if he came, you can’t say no to a star like that. I don’t know anything. I’m just answering the question. But, as I said, coaches always want the best. Ronaldo, even at his age, is still a goal-scoring machine. In a team that creates one opportunity after another, it would be good.”

Paiva suggested that the only person who could answer that question is the American owner of Botafogo, John Textor.
Al Nassr, which will end the season without titles, is not among the 32 teams that will compete in the Club World Cup.
Cristiano Ronaldo, who turned 40 on February 5, has not yet signed a new contract with Al Nassr, and his current contract expires on June 30.
The Portugal captain and five-time Ballon d’Or winner has scored 33 goals in 39 appearances across all competitions this season for the Saudi club.
