NBA superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo has proposed that Ronaldo come and play in Greece.
Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo has invited Cristiano Ronaldo to play in Greece after the Portuguese soccer icon hinted at a departure from Al-Nassr.
On Monday, Ronaldo, one of the greatest soccer players of all time, posted a picture of himself in an Al-Nassr jersey on social media, along with a message suggesting his time with the Saudi Arabian club had come to an end.
"This chapter is closed. The story? It's still being written. Grateful for everything," Ronaldo posted.
Antetokounmpo wants Cristiano Ronaldo in Greece
While soccer figures, journalists, and fans await Ronaldo's next move, two-time NBA MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo extended a few invitations to the five-time Champions League winner.
"Come play in Greece," the Bucks star wrote on Instagram, adding, "Olympiacos, Panathinaikos, AEK (Athens) or PAOK (Thessaloniki)."
He then followed up with, "I'm not picky. Whatever you want."
Antetokounmpo's comments racked up thousands of likes, but, as expected, Ronaldo didn't respond.
In a video posted on his YouTube channel at the end of 2023, the 2021 NBA champion declared Ronaldo the greatest soccer player of all time.
When asked which Portuguese soccer player he would add to his team, Antetokounmpo replied, "You have incredible players. Luis Figo, Nani, and Deco, who was one of my favorite players growing up. But, ultimately, I have to go with the greatest of all time, the one and only Cristiano Ronaldo."
"Whatever sport he played, he'd probably be good. He's so competitive and plays at such a high level even at 37-38 years old. It's very impressive."
In the 2024-2025 season, averaging 30.4 points, 11.9 rebounds, and 6.5 assists, Antetokounmpo finished third in the NBA MVP race.
