Cristiano Ronaldo has been handed the most lucrative contract in sport history by Al-Nassr. The five-time Ballon d'Or winner signed the new deal with the Saudi Pro League side for a reported signing-on fee of £24.5 million ($33.7m) and will earn wages that will see him rake in over a million pounds every two days.
Al-Nassr have reached an agreement with veteran Portuguese coach Jorge Jesus as they are all set to appoint him as their next head coach. Jesus, who left Al-Hilal at the end of the 2024-25 campaign, will return to the Saudi Pro League this summer and unite with compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo. The 70-year-old will replace Italian manager Stefano Pioli.
Cristiano Ronaldo opted not to attend the funeral of fellow national team player Diogo Jota and his brother Andre Silva. His absence sparked headlines and speculation, and it has been reported that the Al-Nassr forward chose to grieve in private, reaching out personally to the bereaved family.
Cristiano Ronaldo has been pictured enjoying a peaceful holiday with partner Georgina Rodriguez aboard a luxury yacht in Mallorca, just days after extending his contract with Al-Nassr. The Portugal captain opted to skip Diogo Jota’s funeral for personal reasons, and is now spending time away from the spotlight ahead of linking up with his Saudi Pro League side.
