FIFA president Gianni Infantino confirmed that talks are underway for Cristiano Ronaldo to join a Club World Cup side on loan.

Ronaldo's Al-Nassr side did not qualify for this summer's competition, which includes the likes of Manchester City, Chelsea, Real Madrid and Inter Miami.

But the legendary striker may still feature, as Infantino told streamer IShowSpeed: “Ronaldo might play for one of the teams as well at the Club World Cup.



There are discussions.”
