Al-Arabiya sources said Saudi club Al-Nasr had officially signed a two-season deal with the Portuguese soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo.
The 37-year-old Ronaldo, who is the historic soccer goalscorer, has mutually terminated his contract with English club Manchester United ahead of the World Cup in Qatar, following statements he made against his former club during his interview with journalist Piers Morgan.
Interestingly, the “Madeira Rocket” won the Ballon d’Or 5 times.
Ronaldo’s entry into Al-Nasr’s Saudi team will represent great technical and marketing value for the club and for the Saudi Roshan League, which has become the center of attention as it is the most important in the Middle East and the continent Asian.
The winter registration period starts on January 2 next, and extends until the 28th of the same month, and the Portuguese Ronaldo deal will be the most important not only in this period, but also in the history of Saudi League transfers.
