Cristiano Ronaldo has predicted who will win the Premier League title ahead of the final day of the season on Sunday.
Manchester City hold a two-point advantage over Arsenal prior to the last game, with Pep Guardiola's men set to host West Ham, while the Gunners will face Everton at the Emirates Stadium.
City look set to become the first team in Premier League history to win four titles on the trot, and Ronaldo has now dropped his verdict on whether they will get the job done this weekend.
After arriving in Riyadh to take his ringside seat for Tyson Fury's undisputed heavyweight fight with Oleksandr Usyk, Ronaldo greeted the Gypsy King's promoter and Arsenal super-fan Frank Warren.
As the pair embraced, Ronaldo couldn't help but make a subtle dig at Warren's expense as he was caught on camera by iFL TV telling him 'you're not going to win the league, oh God!'
Cristiano Ronaldo told Frank Warren that Arsenal will not win the Premier League on Sunday
Warren had tried to convince Ronaldo to join Arsenal, but his request was met with a laugh
His brutal verdict on the title race came just seconds after Warren tried to convince him to return to England to sign for Mikel Arteta's side.
'We're still waiting for you at Arsenal!' Warren said, drawing a laugh from Ronaldo.
Warren is not the only media personality that is keen on Ronaldo moving to north London, with fellow Arsenal supporter Piers Morgan also calling for the Al-Nassr forward to join the club.
Morgan claimed last month that Ronaldo would 'score 25+ goals for Arsenal' in a season if he played for their current team.
That came after the side's disappointing 2-0 defeat at home by Aston Villa, but they have since recovered to win five straight league games to take the title race all the way to the final day.
Arsenal are the second-highest scorers in the league this term with 89 goals, only behind City (93), while their leading individual goalscorer is Bukayo Saka with 16.
Piers Morgan has also said in the past that he would like Ronaldo to move to Arsenal
Morgan feels Ronaldo, who has scored 33 goals in 29 league games for Al-Nassr in 2023-24, could take Arsenal to the next level, and Warren appears to agree.
But Ronaldo's response did not seem to indicate that he is interested in signing with Arsenal, 18 months after ending his second spell at Manchester United following a bombshell interview with Morgan where he criticised the club and manager Erik ten Hag.
