On Tuesday, reports indicated that Cristiano Ronaldo is set to leave the Saudi side Al Nassr after the Riyadh-based club failed to book their seats to the AFC Champions League.
Several teams are racing to sign the iconic player, especially those which will participate in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup this summer.
It was reported that Al Ahly are among the possible directions for the Portuguese star.
The possibility of facing Lionel Messi again could also attract major sponsors and companies to support the deal if Al Ahly decides to pursue negotiations seriously.
Previously, a source from within Al Ahly denied the possibility of signing Ronaldo due to his high salary demands.
However, talks could resume if the club receives the green light financially.
