The last few weeks have been the most challenging of Cristiano Ronaldo's decorated career - due to criticism surrounding his interview with Piers Morgan that led to his contract termination at Manchester United - and World Cup elimination with Portugal.

The Portuguese star has stated he does not want to retire just yet, despite a decline in his performance, and has since been linked to several clubs in Europe and Middle East.

Some daylight is now on the way for the former Real Madrid player, who has reportedly agreed to football's biggest contract up until 2030, including a continuation deal as an ambassador for Saudi Arabia in their tournament hosting bid.

Ronaldo rejected in Germany

Sports Brief earlier reported on Eintracht Frankfurt's confirming they had received an approach to sign Ronaldo in the summer, when he was actively seeking an exit at Manchester United.

The Europa League defending champions looked like a escape route for the veteran striker, as they were in the Champions League, but reportedly turned down the chance to sign him.

Frankfurt were not the only German club to reject the want-away star, as both Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund also confirmed in separate reports that Ronaldo would not join them.
