Cristiano Ronaldo has turned into the best-paid footballer in history in the wake of marking an agreement with Al-Nassr – a month after his Manchester Joined bargain ended together
It’s true – Cristiano Ronaldo is an Al-Nassr player. After weeks of rumors, the Saudi Arabian club officially unveiled the five-time Ballon d’Or winner on Friday night. The deal was supposed to be announced on New Year’s Eve, but social media speculation led to an earlier announcement.
It has been widely reported that Ronaldo will receive the highest salary in the history of football, amounting to approximately £172 million annually.
The club has referred to the player’s signing as “history in the making,” and the former United player has stated that he is “eager to experience a new football league in a different country.”
Ronaldo criticized his then-manager Erik ten Hag, the club’s owners, and a number of his former teammates during his interview with Morgan in November. He continued by asserting that United had “betrayed” him.
However, in order to maintain his fitness, the former United star has been training with Real Madrid due to his strong relationship with his former club.
Los Blancos are already getting ready for their return to La Liga action on December 30 and Ronaldo is training away for the first team.
CBS Sports reports that Ronaldo’s contract with Al-Nassr will result in a salary of $172 million. The remaining will be covered by commercial deals and image rights, and the legend of Real Madrid is expected to participate in the nation’s effort to host the World Cup in 2030.
Al-Nassr hasn’t said how long Ronaldo will play for the team, but he is believed to have signed a contract for two and a half years. He is said to have signed a contract that will keep him playing for the Saudi team until he is 40, according to rumors. In February, the veteran forward will turn 38.
