FIFA 23 players will look to play as Cristiano Ronaldo following the striker’s high-profile move to Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr. Here’s where you can find him in Career Mode and Ultimate Team.

The January Transfer window is set to bring some major changes to FIFA 23, and it’s likely that none will surpass the sheer hype of Cristiano Ronaldo‘s switch from Manchester United to Al-Nassr.

With this groundbreaking move to the Saudi Pro League, Ronaldo says goodbye to Europe as he embarks on a new challenge in the twilight of his acclaimed career.

His highly-publicized transfer has left FIFA 23 players wondering if he’s still available in Career Mode and Ultimate Team, so here’s what you need to know.

How to get Cristiano Ronaldo in FIFA 23 Career Mode?

Cristiano Ronaldo is still in FIFA 23, but when it comes to Career Mode, he hasn’t been transferred to Al-Nassr yet. You can still find the prolific goal-scoring machine in the Free Agents list, and sign him to the club of your choice.

However, if you’re looking to up the authenticity, you can transfer Ronaldo to Al-Nassr manually before a new Career Mode save. Here are the steps you must follow:

Navigate to the FIFA 23 home menu and select settings.
Click the Edit Teams option.
Head to Free Agents, then select Al-Nassr from the Saudi Arabian League.
Go to Team Sheets and switch him from the Free Agents section to the Al-Nassr squad list.

Transferring Ronaldo to Al-Nassr manually will ensure that he appears in the club’s squad list for Kick Off matches as well.

When will Ronaldo be transferred to Al-Nassr in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team?

Cristiano Ronaldo has not been transferred to Al-Nassr in FIFA 23’s Ultimate Team mode. While the transfer has been completed outside of the game, EA only release updated cards from the January Transfer Window once it slams shut.

The Winter Window will come to a close on January 31, and as February rolls around, FIFA 23 players can keep their eyes peeled for an updated Ronaldo card boasting the Al-Nassr badge.

It will be interesting to discover if the Ultimate Team switch from Manchester United to Al-Nassr will also come with a rating downgrade. We’ll keep you posted as new information concerning Ronaldo comes to light.
