Al Sharjah midfielder Miralem Pjanic says Cristiano Ronaldo was right to make his move to Al Nassr.

The former Barcelona and Juventus star has declared the Middle East "the future of football".

He said of the ex-Manchester United striker: "Cristiano Ronaldo has joined Al Nassr, a very ambitious club.

"I am convinced that the Middle East will undoubtedly be the future of football. It has a lot to offer, but it has not yet reached its full potential.

"I was not at all surprised by Cristiano's choice. Even in Arabia, the level is not as easy as people think. I think that his choice will bring a lot of growth."
