A draw with Getafe in the final matchday of the 2022-23 LaLiga sealed Valladolid’s fate, sending the club owned by Ronaldo Nazario to the Spanish second division. The club flirted with relegation throughout the entire season, until it ultimately dropped in the season finale.
In the wake of this disappointing ending to the campaign, word on the street was that the Brazilian legend would sell the club. However, it wasn’t long before O fenômeno denied those rumors, claiming he won’t leave until he finds success.

Ronaldo wants to stay until Valladolid succeeds
Valladolid would be worth nearly €125 million right now, according to reports. However, Ronaldo wants to cement a legacy and won’t rest until he gets to do that. But he did blame the lack of institutional support all these months.
Ronaldo didn’t give any names, but many understand his words were directed at Óscar Puente, the Valladolid mayor. Ronaldo suggested he won’t be expecting any outside help from now on, accepting that he and the fans are alone in the mission of getting this club to new heights.
