Recently, Flamenco's football director José Botto was interviewed and talked about whether the club intends to sign Ronaldo or other big-name players to participate in the Club World Cup.
He said: "Our goal is very clear, that is, to win the Brazilian League, the Libertadoes, the Brazilian Cup... If possible, strive to win all the events. Even if you can't win all, you must win at least two or three domestic competitions."
"So, we do not agree with the practice of introducing a certain player for the Club World Cup, whether it is Cristiano Ronaldo or other players. This will not have a positive impact in our opinion."
"I They do plan to strengthen the lineup in the transfer window before the Club World Cup, but mainly for the whole season, not just the Club World Cup. After all, the Club World Cup is a brand new event, and no one knows how each team will deal with it. If investments affecting the entire season are made, it would be irrational from a competitive perspective."
According to ESPN, the possibility of Ronaldo joining Flamenco is very small, and the biggest obstacle is the salary issue, his annual salary in Saudi Arabia is as high as 200 million euros.
