Rumours have been circulating about football legend, Cristiano Ronaldo, ever since he left Manchester United. People were expecting the player to join major clubs like Paris Saint-Germain alongside Lionel Messi and Mbappe, or even as far as FC Barcelona, but little did people know that Cristiano’s next stop reportedly will be in Saudi’s very own local team, Alnassr.
Marca sports news reported via Twitter that Cristiano Ronaldo would allegedly be signing a 2-and-a-half year 200 million dollars (Dhs734 million) per season with Alnassr.

Marca also reports that Cristiano Ronaldo will allegedly receive a salary of 64M SAR (62 million Dhs) per month. The player is said to start playing for the Saudi team on the 1st of January.
This jump in salary will make Ronaldo the highest-paid football player in history, beating Messi and Neymar by a huge margin.
