Joao Felix has revealed that Cristiano Ronaldo 'suffered' under the pressure of leading Al-Nassr to the Saudi Pro League title, which the club won for the first time in seven years. The Portuguese forward, who joined Al-Nassr in a high-profile transfer last summer, made the comments while reflecting on his debut season.
Felix recalled the immense weight on Ronaldo's shoulders throughout the campaign, noting that the veteran star felt the burden of ending the club's long trophy drought. 'He suffered a lot with that pressure,' Felix said, according to reports. 'But in the end, we achieved it together.'
Al-Nassr secured the league title in the 2025-26 season, marking a significant milestone for the club and its star-studded squad. The triumph ended a seven-year wait for the championship, with Ronaldo playing a pivotal role in the team's success.
Felix also spoke about his own integration into the Saudi side, praising the club's ambition and the support from fans. 'It was a fantastic debut campaign for me,' he added. 'The club's status and the project here convinced me to make the move.'
