Both João Félix and Cristiano Ronaldo hold the same passport and speak the same language. It definitely helps. Félix played his first match for Al Nassr during the Saudi Super Cup against Al Ittihad, and managed to score a goal in his very first outing. So he has started well. Previously Al Nassr had experimented with Sadio Mané and Jhon Durán, with varying success. But I hope this time, the result will be much better. Today Félix will be in action again, and he will be playing against Al Ahli.
Cristiano Ronaldo has scored hundreds of goals in his career and when he has become older, he has started to change his attitude and been more ready to support his teammates in assists. Surely when he was not given good key passes from his teammates, he still shown disagreement, disappointment and did not hide such emotion on field.
I mean Cristiano Ronaldo can make such an assist to other teammates in Al-Nassr, and not only to Joao Felix. Of course Cristiano Ronaldo knew that Felix is facing with difficult time in his career and wanted to support his young teammate. It's only part of many reasons for that assist and I believe the main reason is his attitude change since months ago.
