Ronaldo reportedly wanted to join Arsenal in January. If the Gunners had signed him, they would have won the title, says Piers Morgan

Cristiano Ronaldo is now playing in Saudi Arabia, however, he was apparently inclined to disappear not only from Europe but also from England in January. English journalist Piers Morgan offered an interesting scenario.

Piers Morgan was a relatively unknown figure to the Czech public before the World Cup. But then Cristiano Ronaldo interviewed him, which caused a huge stir and more or less ensured that the Portuguese became a free agent.

Since then, the English journalist has regularly championed the winner of five Ballon d’Or and regularly praises him. He even defended Ronaldo’s move to the Saudi Arabian league, specifically to Al-Nassr.

Now, however, he has come up with some interesting information and provided an interesting scenario. In fact, he reacted on social media to Arsenal’s weekend loss to Brighton, which probably means the loss of their title chances.

“Laugh all you want but if Arsenal had signed Ronaldo until the end of the season after leaving Manchester United, which amongst other things he wanted to do, then they would have won the league,” Morgan expressed on Twitter.

“Cristiano knows how to win big trophies and how to score goals when he really needs to,” the English journalist added.

The fact is that Arsenal don’t have many experienced players in the squad with the mentality that Ronaldo possesses. However, it is questionable what effect he would have on the cabin or possibly the authority of coach Mikel Arteta.

The Portuguese now has 15 competitive games in Al-Nasser, in which he has scored 12 goals and also added 2 assists. However, when he arrived, his team was leading the league. They are currently second, 5 points behind first-placed Al-Hilal.
