Jamie Carragher's stinging comment as Cristiano Ronaldo is set to make Al-Nassr U-turn

Jamie Carragher's criticism of Cristiano Ronaldo transfer to Saudi Arabia appears to have prompted Al-Nassr to change their contract plan for the megastar.

Ronaldo completed an eye-catching move to the Saudi Arabian club earlier this month and is expected to earn around £173million per year. But the Portuguese forward has failed to impress so far as his side were dumped out of the Saudi Super Cup by close rivals Al-Ittihad on Thursday, with captain Ronaldo blanking once again following his goalless debut appearance the previous Sunday.
