Sven Goran Eriksson has criticised Cristiano Ronaldo's reported move to Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia, claiming that the 37-year-old could play in Europe's top leagues for another six months at least.
Ronaldo looks set to join the Saudi league side amid his mutually agreed departure from Manchester United, accepting a huge figure to play in the middle east. The seven-time Ballon D'Or winner left Old Trafford last month following a bombshell interview with Piers Morgan in which he criticised multiple aspects of the club and its leadership in recent years.
World football's all-time leading goalscorer is currently in Qatar, which borders Saudi Arabia, for the World Cup and the transfer could be completed imminently due to the star currently being unattached and free to speak with any club. However, Eriksson whose England side were knocked out by Ronaldo's Portugal at both Euro 2004 and the 2006 World Cup, believes it is too soon for such a move.
