Cristiano Ronaldo signs contract with Al Nassr until... 2030

Marca newspaper first reported exclusively about the attractive offer from Al Nassr. That was on 11/23. On December 5, the Spanish publication predicted that everything had been decided, that was, Cristiano Ronaldo agreed to a two-and-a-half year contract with the Saudi Arabian team.

The deal can be officially announced in the next few hours when CR7 has decided to travel to Riyadh to sign a contract with Al Nassr until 2030. Specifically, he will play for 2 and a half years as a player and the rest as the Arab nation's candidate ambassador to join Egypt and Greece in the race to host the 2030 World Cup.

In the past two weeks, following the announcement from his agent, Ronaldo asked to take time to think before agreeing, just a few weeks after the breakup with Man Utd.

For its part, it was not until the beginning of this week that Al Nassr identified the arrival of Ronaldo after seeking to cut 3 players, which was guaranteed not to violate financial controls.

From the beginning there were rumors about a salary of 200 million euros that Ronaldo pocketed for each season. However, according to Marca, this amount is for 2 and a half years of playing football and it will increase when CR7 becomes the ambassador of the candidate country to host the World Cup.

Joining Al Nassr means Ronaldo says goodbye to top football, at least in club competitions. He could not find a new destination in Europe to attend the Champions League as expected.
