Cristiano Ronaldo seals Saudi stay! Portuguese superstar agrees one-year contract extension with Al-Nassr just days after celebrating 40th birthday

Ronaldo, who joined the Saudi giants in January 2023 on a two-and-a-half-year deal, would have seen his contract run out at the end of the 2024/25 campaign. However, an Al-Nassr official has reportedly told the AFP that the Portuguese star has agreed to extend his stay for another year and the new deal will run until June 2026.

Speaking AFP, the official said: "The sides have agreed on the renewable extension of Ronaldo's contract, but it has not been signed yet. An announcement will be made over the coming days."

The news of Ronaldo's extension comes less than a week after he turned 40. The ex-Manchester United and Real Madrid star marked his milestone birthday with a goal against Al Feiha in a crucial Saudi Pro League clash on February 6 as Al-Nassr won the clash 3-0.

Al-Nassr will be back in action on Thursday as they take on Al-Ahli in a league clash away from home.
