Ronaldo moved to Al-Nassr in 2023 after his contract terminated at Manchester United, attracting a number of names to the league which is bigger than ever.
The Portuguese icon was joined by international teammate Felix, who has already scored 14 league goals this season, one more than Ronaldo.
Speaking to the Saudi Pro League’s official website, Felix opened up on Ronaldo, who he says continues to teach those around him each and every day.
“Of course, having Cristiano as a team-mate is always good, for everything he brings to the team, all the teachings. He's a role model for almost all players, especially when it comes to work and dedication.
“The fact that I and our team-mates have him around, it makes us better players too, and especially more professional, which is very important nowadays. And that we're here with him helps us a lot. As you've seen, our team has played game after game, and continues to respond well physically.
“All the efforts (Cristiano) makes and what he does on the pitch, which he has experienced more than all of us together, which he puts in every day and every game, is unique. And that we see him, at 40 years old, doing what he does only gives us more motivation. As I said before, he's an example for us, and we always try to look for the positive things he does for us.”
Ronaldo’s side are chasing down champions Al Hilal and are just one point away from the league leaders. Felix, joined by Inigo Martinez and Kingsley Coman in the summer, are helping Ronaldo push towards his first title with the Saudi side, who have missed out on trophies since he arrived.
