Cristiano Ronaldo-led Saudi Pro League side, Al-Nassr, have set its sights on Mason Greenwood. The English forward is seen as a key piece in their push for silverware.
Greenwood currently plays for French top-flight side Olympique Marseille. Last summer, Saudi clubs tried to sign him, but he stayed in Europe to grow his game. That decision paid off as he shone bright for the Stade Velodrome side.
Mason Greenwood’s performance since leaving Man United
The 23-year-old had a brilliant 2024/25 season in Ligue 1. He scored 22 goals and added six assists across all competitions, as noted by Transfermarkt. His form helped Marseille return to the Champions League.
It was a continuation of his rise. Before that, he impressed on loan at Getafe in Spain. There, he found rhythm and consistent minutes.
This preseason, he’s been sharp again, netting two goals in three games as Roberto De Zerbi’s men gear up for the upcoming season.
Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr wants Mason Greenwood
Al-Nassr, led by Cristiano Ronaldo, has taken notice. They want Greenwood to join their growing project, according to MARCA.
But they’re not alone. Inter Milan is also in the race. The Nerazurri sees Greenwood as a perfect fit, having missed out on the Champions League, Serie A, and Coppa Italia by a whisker last term.
Al-Nassr’s bid could be boosted by Ronaldo’s influence. The Portuguese star reportedly backs the move. Now, Greenwood faces a big decision. Will he stay in Europe or take on a new challenge in Saudi Arabia?
Either way, his performances have made him one of the hottest names in the market. Al-Nassr are moving fast. They’ve already signed Joao Felix from Chelsea to boost their attack.
With Ronaldo and Sadio Mane already in the squad, the Saudi side wants more firepower. Jhon Duran has been sent out on loan. That opens the door for Greenwood.
And with the club desperate to end their trophy drought, they need goals, and Greenwood could be the answer.
