Cristiano Ronaldo to play on until 2027?! CR7 thrashing out final details of new Al-Nassr contract as retirement plans are put on the backburner

Per Fabrizio Romano, Ronaldo is in talks with Al-Nassr over a new deal that could see him stay in the Saudi Pro League until 2027. The two parties have yet to reach an agreement on the length of the contract, but the possibility is there for the Portugal international to play there until he is 42.

Ronaldo has shown no signs of slowing down, scoring 93 goals in 105 games for the club, but he has yet to win a trophy with his current employers. He had been linked with a summer exit, particularly to play in the Club World Cup, but he has stayed in Riyadh, and now looks set to put pen to paper to confirm his commitment.

Ronaldo has won back-to-back Golden Boots in Saudi Arabia but Al-Nassr ended the season 13 points behind champions Al-Ittihad.

Al-Nassr's next scheduled fixture comes against Ittihad in the semi-final of the Saudi Super Cup on August 19. Ronaldo will be desperate to guide his team to a final.
