Joao Felix hails Cristiano Ronaldo as 'unique' influence at Al-Nassr

Goal reports that Joao Felix, who joined Cristiano Ronaldo at Al‑Nassr in the summer of 2025, described the five-time Ballon d’Or winner as “unique” and credited him with helping make him a better player, telling the Saudi Pro League’s official website that Ronaldo brings teaching, professionalism and dedication.

Felix said Ronaldo’s example raises the standards of those around him, noting that seeing him perform at 40 gives the squad extra motivation. He also praised Al‑Nassr’s forward line — Ronaldo, Sadio Mane, Kingsley Coman and himself — saying when all four are doing well “we're unstoppable” in Saudi Arabia.

Felix is under contract until 2027 and Ronaldo’s deal is also due to expire that summer; Felix said he is unsure of the long-term future but wants to leave his mark. Al‑Nassr have dropped points in their last two fixtures against Al‑Ettifaq and Al‑Ahli and sit one point behind unbeaten leaders Al‑Hilal; they will host Al‑Qadisiyah on Thursday before facing Al‑Hilal on January 12.
