Cristiano Ronaldo is ready to sign a seven-year contract with Saudi club Al-Nassr, a deal that would see him earning €200m a year. According to Spanish newspaper Marca, Ronaldo is tilting towards an agreement that would see him stay with the Saudi club till 2030. He would play till 2024 and then after becoming an ambassador and potentially become a consultant to Saudi Arabia’s quest to host the 2030 World Cup. During the 2022 World Cup Ronaldo denied any link with the Saudi Club even as officials confirmed that talks had taken place. But Al-Nassr boss Rudi Garcia has admitted he would welcome the chance to coach the five-time Ballon d’Or winner. “I think that any coach would be delighted to train a great star like Cristiano. I have always thought that the great players are the easiest to manage because they are very intelligent,” Garcia said earlier this month.
Ronaldo became a free agent after he was released from his contract by Manchester United following his interview with talk show host Piers Morgan.
