Previously, it was announced that several clubs would be prevented from registering new footballers across a few transfer windows. Ronaldo\u2019s team was part of that list, but now they are no longer there.<\/p>\n<p>With the winter transfer window opening very soon, new players could land in Al-Nassr. It will be amazing news for Cristiano Ronaldo as he still chases his 1<sup>st<\/sup> Saudi Pro League title, and reinforcements would be welcomed.<\/p>\n<p>The rumors are that the Saudi Arabian club was banned because of an unpaid payment that forms part of the contract that secured Aymeric Laporte&#8217;s transfer to the Middle East team from Man City during the summer of 2023.<\/p>\n<p>The Sky Blues waited for 9 million euros as part of the deal, but they didn\u2019t receive it, and that\u2019s why Al-Nassr was handed the transfer ban. However, that was resolved quickly by the team that is led by Cristiano Ronaldo, and only a few days later, FIFA announced the lifting of the transfer ban.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83d\udea8 \ud835\udc01\ud835\udc11\ud835\udc04\ud835\udc00\ud835\udc0a\ud835\udc08\ud835\udc0d\ud835\udc06: Al Nassr have been confirmed as fully compliant with regulations, and the registration ban has been permanently lifted by FIFA.<\/p>\n<p>The case is now closed \u2014 a key boost for Al Nassr as they plan ahead for 2026 \ud83c\uddf8\ud83c\udde6 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/6w1vFfnXSg\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/6w1vFfnXSg<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Football Xtra (@FootballXtraaa) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FootballXtraaa\/status\/2003189465788088327?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">December 22, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cristiano Ronaldo has received good news before Christmas in his bid to triumph with the title in Saudi Arabia, as FIFA lifted Al-Nassr\u2019s [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4225,"featured_media":505716,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false},"tags":[16904,17367],"news_category":[14235],"gn_keywords":[17961,432],"acf":{"news_source":"","link_picture":"","announce":"The world football governing body lifted Al-Nassr's transfer ban.","video":[]},"rank_math_focus_keyword":"","rank_math_description":"","rank_math_title":"","rank_math_robots":"","rank_math_canonical_url":"","rank_math_facebook_title":"","rank_math_facebook_description":"","rank_math_facebook_image":"","rank_math_twitter_title":"","rank_math_twitter_description":"","rank_math_twitter_image":"","rank_math_snippet_shortcode":"","rank_math_primary_category":"","rankmath_seo":{"focus_keyword":"","description":"","title":"","canonical_url":"","robots":"","facebook":{"title":"","description":"","image":""},"twitter":{"title":"","description":"","image":""}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/505715"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4225"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=505715"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/505715\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":505717,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/505715\/revisions\/505717"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/505716"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=505715"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=505715"},{"taxonomy":"news_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news_category?post=505715"},{"taxonomy":"gn_keywords","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/gn_keywords?post=505715"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
