Cristiano Ronaldo has claimed the Saudi Pro League is a better league than France's Ligue 1, but the process to reach the 'highest' level will take time.

These quality players and the infrastucture already in place have led the Portuguese superstar to say he believes the leage is already better than France's.

Speaking on his move to Saudi, Ronaldo said: 'I thought it would be a good move for me. Why not give a chance to another country?

'I'm not being arrogant but I said that one year ago. The things change, the world changes, football changes, the rules change, everything changes.

 The 38-year-old continued on to speak about where the league will go, and even claimed it could become one of the best competitions in the world.
