The ex-Manchester United forward will continue his career in the Middle East

Cristiano Ronaldo is already in Saudi Arabia to sign for his new club, Al-Nassr. After terminating his contract with Manchester United, the forward played the 2022 World Cup in Qatar as a free agent, waiting to find a new team for the remainder of the season. And now he has one.

According to Diario AS, the club and Ronaldo's agents have already reached an agreement for the player to sign for the Saudi club until 2025, which would take him beyond the age of 40. According to the same information, Al-Nassr will not pay the €200 million per season that was reported a few days ago -- the figure is said to be significantly lower.

In Saudi Arabia, they do not want to miss out on a player who can showcase them to the football world, with the 2030 World Cup on the horizon, a tournament they are bidding to host.
