It has been reported that Cristiano Ronaldo (37, Portugal) will sign a contract with Al Nasr, a club team in Saudi Arabia, within the year.
Spanish media Marca said on the 21st that “Ronaldo will sign a contract within this year” and “the contract period is until June 2025”.
Marca expected an annual salary of 200 million euros (about 273 billion won) for a two-and-a-half-year contract.
Ronaldo currently has no team. Ronaldo, who played for Manchester United in English professional soccer until last November, terminated his contract with Manchester United before the opening of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
Marca said, “I will spend my Christmas vacation in Dubai,” and predicted that even if Ronaldo signed with Al Nasr, the timing would be next week.
Reports about Ronaldo’s departure to Al Nasr came out once during the World Cup. However, Ronaldo’s side denied this.
