On Sunday, Manchester United officially announced that Alex Telles has completed a permanent move to Al-Nassr, a club based in Saudi Arabia. This transfer will reunite Telles with Cristiano Ronaldo, with whom he shared a dressing room at Manchester United two years ago.

The move to Al-Nassr places Alex Telles among a growing list of players who are opting to leave top-flight football to ply their trade in Saudi Arabia. Both Manchester United and Al-Nassr confirmed the transfer via their official Twitter accounts.

Manchester United released a statement confirming Telles' departure: "Alex Telles has completed a permanent move from Manchester United to Al-Nassr. The 30-year-old full-back has joined the Saudi Premier League outfit following 50 first-team appearances for the Red Devils."

Last season, Telles spent his time on loan with Sevilla, where he had a successful stint and helped the team secure the Europa League title. Now, the full-back will join forces with former Manchester United teammate Cristiano Ronaldo at Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia. The Gulf State club has been active in the transfer market this summer, securing major signings such as Brozovic and Seko Fofana, and Telles marks their third significant addition.

In response to the acquisition, Al-Nassr took to their Twitter account to express their excitement and welcome the Brazilian star: "We have officially signed the Brazilian Star Alex Telles. We wish him good luck with our stars."

As the trend of players moving to Saudi Arabia continues, Telles' decision to join Al-Nassr highlights the appeal of the Saudi Premier League as an attractive destination for players from prominent football leagues. His reunion with Cristiano Ronaldo adds an intriguing dimension to the move and presents an exciting prospect for Al-Nassr and their fans.

Manchester United will bid farewell to a valuable player who made a considerable contribution during his time at the club. As Telles embarks on a new chapter in his career, he will be hoping for further success and new challenges at his new home in Saudi Arabia.
