Cristiano Ronaldo massively boosts new club Al Nassr’s social media after transfer

Cristiano Ronaldo’s massive influence in the world of sport manifested itself once again after sealing a stunning £173m-a-year transfer to Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia.

The 37-year-old has been a free agent since Manchester United ripped up his contract in November 2022, and seems to have finally found a home in the Middle East.

While he is set to play for two years for the Saudi Arabia club, Ronaldo’s deal is believed to run seven years, as he will take up an ambassadorial role once he hangs up his boots.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s comments from 2015 resurface after Al Nassr move

The Saudi Arabia club announced the signing of the superstar on Friday, December 30, bringing an end to speculation on where he would play next.

Ronaldo signed a two-year playing deal with the club but is likely to still be part of the team after retirement in an ambassadorial capacity.
