Marca newspaper: 'Ronaldo signed two and a half years with the Saudi Arabia club'

Since about a week recently, after Ronaldo reached an agreement to soon terminate his contract with Man Utd, there have been reports that many clubs in Saudi Arabia are contacting the Portuguese striker. The defending champion of this country Al-Hilal is said to be the first to approach. However, according to Marca, Al Nassr is dominant and is about to reach an agreement with Ronaldo thanks to a generous offer of income.

This club is said to be ready to pay Ronaldo a salary of $ 200 million for a two-and-a-half year contract. Al Nassr believes that the appearance of the owner of the five Golden Balls can help them raise the bar and surpass rival Al-Hilal to regain dominance in the domestic tournament.

Two weeks ago, in an interview with MC Piers Morgan, Ronaldo revealed that he had turned down a contract worth $ 366 million from a Saudi club in the summer. Saudi Sports Minister Abdulaziz bin Turki Al-Faisal himself also stated that he wanted Ronaldo to play in the national championship, and expressed his intention to buy Liverpool and Man Utd - two clubs looking for new investors. .

Ronaldo has no destination after terminating his contract with Man Utd. Before that, he and the Old Trafford team had a conflict that could not be repaired due to the contents of a 90-minute interview with Morgan. There, Ronaldo said he was betrayed by Man Utd, criticized the owners and declared no respect for coach Erik ten Hag.

Al Nassr is one of the most successful clubs in Saudi Arabia with nine championships, most recently in 2019. They are led by former AS Roma coach Rudi Garcia. Al Nassr's squad also includes former Arsenal and Colombia goalkeeper David Ospina and Spain midfielder Alvaro Gonzalez.

Al Nassr's home ground is Mrsool Park with a capacity of 25,000 people.
