Cristiano Ronaldo plans to sign a seven-year contract worth one billion euros in Saudi Arabia. The Portuguese captain was sent to the United bench by Erik Ten Hag, after which he gave an explosive interview to Piers Morgan. However, the interview turned out to be a disaster and his contract was terminated at the club.
However, the interview turned out to be a disaster and his contract was terminated at the club. It summarizes other reports suggesting there were a few others as well.
His antics on and off the pitch over the past six months will surely make big clubs across Europe reconsider signing him. It has been Al-Nassr who has opened his checkbook and is willing to deliver unprecedented numbers in e-sports.
Interestingly, there is the possibility of super duo. Once, the casual drop of Messi’s name by the sports minister when asked about Ronaldo raises questions. It may also be due to the kingdom’s existing relationship with the newly crowned world champion. The great dream of Saudi Arabia after Qatar is to host the next World Cup.
Ronaldo to get a big contract
Ronaldo’s commercial appeal remains the same, even if his on-pitch performance has declined recently. The 37-year-old’s contract says he will play for two and a half years before assuming the role of ambassador, at which point his salary will continue to rise.

According to reports in Spain, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner will get a contract worth £175m a year. At United, Ronaldo was the highest-paid player in the Premier League, but his annual salary was over £26 million.
According to the latest Forbes list, Messi is its highest-earning athlete in 2022, with earnings on the field of £62m, more than £100m less than Ronaldo. He would also far surpass LeBron James, Stephen Curry, Cancelo Alvarez and Tom Brady on the rich list.
Ronaldo was linked to Al Nasr ahead of the World Cup but declined to comment on the speculation as he tried to focus on Qatar’s cross-border issues. The conclusion seems to have made a breakthrough.

But if al-Nasr can afford Ronaldo, they will have to sack the team to make room for Ronaldo financially, even with the fortune available to teams in this part of the world. Three players will come out.
The Riyadh team already have former Arsenal goalkeeper David Ospina at home, their League champion Luis Gustavo and Cameroonian star Vincent Abou Bakar, scorer of his two World Cup goals.
Ronaldo reportedly turned down a big offer to move to Saudi Arabia last summer, but may choose to accept it now that his options seem to have run out. The mercurial star wanted Champions League football, but no club tried to sign him.
He scored 140 goals in this competition. That’s 11 times more than the rest of Messi in this year’s Champions League at PSG. Leaving Europe would open the door for his great rivals to end up surpassing him, but Ronaldo has expressed his desire to play until he is 40, which has led him to move to the Middle East.
Saudi Arabia’s sports minister, Prince Abdulaziz bin Turki Al-Faisal, has come out in favor of replacing Ronaldo. He recently told Sky Sports: “Who doesn’t want to play in their league? He is a role model for many players, him and Messi. I would love to see them play in the Saudi league to strengthen our program and show that the league is strong. ”
