Portuguese player Cristiano Ronaldo was introduced to a crowd at his new club’s Msool Park as the newest player at Saudi Arabia’s Al-Nassr FC, with whom he signed until 2025 after being released by his previous club, the Manchester United.
At 37, Cristiano Ronaldo became signing of the year after signing his new contract with Al-Nassr of Arabia. The Portuguese will earn $200 million a season, which would make him by far the highest paid athlete in the world. The Real Madrid legend will receive a total of $16.66 million per month; $547,945 per day; ending up with a whopping $22,831 an hour (€21,280). In fact, every 60 seconds ‘The Bug’ will receive around $380,517 (about 355,000 euros).
However, fans will still have to wait to see him score a goal for the Saudi team.
The player who has to start
Two days after his presentation as the new Al Nassr player, club sources have confirmed a setback that will delay the Portuguese’s debut. Each Saudi football team can have a maximum of eight foreign players in the local league and the Al Nassr team led by Rudi García Now he adds nine positions with the arrival of Cristiano.
The team already has Colombian goalkeeper David Ospina, Brazilians Luiz Gustavo and Talisca and Cameroonian striker Vincent Aboubakar, considered “non-transferable” by the club. that at least one foreigner must be eliminated to register Cristiano Ronaldo. According to Arab media, eThe favorite to leave the club is Uzbek midfielder Jalaluddin Masharipov who, curiously, is also the one who has so far worn the number 7 shirt that will wear CR7 in Al Nasr. “Negotiations are underway for the transfer of one of our foreigners, but they are not yet in the final phase”, clarified a source of Al-Nassr.
In other words, Cristiano will not be able to make his debut until Masharipov’s departure is finalized. Uzbek Masharipov was already close to leaving Al Nassr, but his move to Al Ahly’s side ultimately failed to materialise. The truth is that Jaloliddin took the 7 from him to give him the 77, his future in the team is uncertain and he will never recover the number again.
