Cristiano Ronaldo appears to have gone on strike at Al Nassr.
Ronaldo was missing from his team's Saudi Pro League game win over Al Riyadh on Monday - and Your Site News have been told the star is unhappy about the running of the club.
Al Nassr are one of four Saudi Pro League clubs owned by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund. Ronaldo believes the other three clubs - Al Hilal, Al Ahli and Al Ittihad - are getting preferential treatment, especially in the transfer market.
Al Hilal have enjoyed a fruitful window so far, completing a deal for former Arsenal defender Pablo Mari and have been strongly linked with a £26m move for Rennes' Kader Meite.
Al Hilal have also signed Karim Benzema from Al Ittihad on a free transfer.
Benzema, who is reported to earn £1.6m a week, was out of contract at Al Ittihad this summer and has signed a one-and-a-half year with his new team.
He felt so insulted by his former club's contract extension proposal last week, he did not play for them against Al Najma on Sunday.
The transfer was hanging in the balance earlier on Deadline Day but the French striker has now completed his move.
Your Site News' chief correspondent Kaveh Solhekol:
"Spare a thought for Cristiano Ronaldo, who earns around £500,000 a day. But he's so unhappy at the moment that he didn't play for his club Al Nassr on Monday.
"There wasn't anything wrong with his fitness, he wasn't rested, he wasn't in the squad at all. The reason he didn't play is he's unhappy with the way Al Nassr have been run.
"Ronaldo feels that the PIF have been putting more money into Al Hilal, Al Ahli and Al Ittihad than they have into his club Al Nassr.
"Bear in mind, Ronaldo has been in Saudi Arabia and scoring goals for fun - but Al Nassr have not won the title in that time. He thought - in this window - that the club would dig deep, bring in reinforcements and strengthen their squad. He feels that hasn't happened.
"And that's why he's effectively gone on strike."
Ivan Toney, meanwhile, has turned down the chance to move to Juventus and two Premier League clubs in this window.
Toney is happy and settled at Al Ahli and believes he is fitter and sharper than ever.
He has scored 56 times in 72 games for Al Ahli and he wants to keep scoring to get into the England squad for the World Cup. He was called up to Thomas Tuchel's Three Lions squad for the June international camp.
Al Ahli signed him from Brentford for £40m 18 months ago.
