Sources at Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr have confirmed that Cristiano Ronaldo will see out his 2½-year contract with the club. They added that recent rumors suggesting that Ronaldo could go out on loan to Newcastle United if they qualify for the UEFA Champions League are fake.

Ronaldo is set to be unveiled as an Al-Nassr player at the club’s Mrsool Park stadium on Tuesday evening. His $75 million-a-year deal will make him the world’s highest-paid football player.

A report in Spain claimed that Al-Nassr had inserted a clause in Ronaldo’s contract that would enable him to play for Newcastle should they qualify for the Champions League, adding that this is the main reason why the player agreed to his Al-Nassr contract. Newcastle’s majority owner is the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund (PIF). Additionally, the report inaccurately claimed that the PIF owns Al-Nassr as well.

The 37-year-old player departed from Manchester United in November after reaching a mutual agreement with the club to terminate his contract. While he initially attempted to find an offer from a club that competes in the Champions League, Ronaldo agreed to join the Saudi Arabian club when no such offers presented themselves.

While unconfirmed, Ronaldo is largely expected to make his Al-Nassr debut during an away game against local Riyadh rivals Al Shabab on January 14.

A deal between Cristiano Ronaldo and Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr is expected to be imminent, several media outlets reported on Friday. He is expected to earn €200 million per season as a result.

Ronaldo’s proposed deal with Al Nassr is split into two parts. For the first two and a half years, he is expected to be a player for the team, while the second part of the contract is for him to serve as an ambassador to assist Saudi Arabia in promoting its joint bid to secure the rights for the 2030 FIFA World Cup along with Egypt and Greece.

Since being released from his contract with Manchester United in November, Ronaldo has been a free agent. While initially believed to be seeking a new club based in Europe that could offer him the chance to play Champions League football, no offers have presented themselves to Ronaldo.

Following an extended period without contract offers, it is believed that a transfer to Al Nassr is becoming more imminent.

Portuguese superstar forward Cristiano Ronaldo still hasn’t decided on his club’s future despite recent reports that he inked a lucrative deal with Saudi Arabia side Al-Nassr. Instead, Ronaldo remains focused on the 2022 World Cup and will wait for the tournament to end before considering his next step.

High-profile Spanish outlet Marca reported over the weekend that Ronaldo has accepted Al-Nassr’s offer. According to this report, the 37-year-old player inked a 2 ½ year deal starting on January 1st that would net him $200 million per season. 

Several sources close to the matter confirmed that Ronaldo has the offer from Al-Nassr and that it is worth $200 million per season, including sponsorship deals. However, the player still hasn’t signed or accepted anything. 

Cristiano Ronaldo is currently a free agent after agreeing to a mutual contract termination with Premier League side Manchester United. The move was a result of Ronaldo’s frustration with lack of playing time and poor relationship with new head coach Erik Ten Hag.

Ronaldo’s main goal is to remain in Europe and continue playing for a competitive team that takes part in Championship League. However, it is unclear whether that is a possibility since there seems to be a lack of interest in his services, especially among top European teams.

Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo and Manchester United decided to go their separate ways. The shocking news was confirmed on Tuesday by the Premier League club on social media.

According to Man United, the two sides have agreed to “mutually terminate” Ronaldo’s contract. The 37-year-old player was previously under until the end of the 2022-23 season with a club option for one more season.

“The club thanks him for his immense contribution across two spells at Old Trafford, scoring 145 goals in 346 appearances, and wishes him and his family well for the future,” said Manchester United in a statement. “Everyone at Manchester United remains focused on continuing the team’s progress under Erik ten Hag and working together to deliver success on the pitch.”

This unexpected development follows Ronaldo’s blockbuster interview with Piers Morgan in which he openly spoke about his dissatisfaction with his status at the club. Among other things, he said that Man United didn’t make any progress since his first spell at the club while adding that he doesn’t respect current manager Erik Ten Hag.

Cristiano Ronaldo returned to Manchester in the summer of 2021 with the hopes of replicating some of the success he had during his first spell. He managed to put together a solid season in 2021/22, which saw him score 24 goals, but the club’s performances were far from satisfying, and they missed out on the Champions League.

Since ten Hag arrived at the club, Ronaldo has been sparsely used and only started four Premier League matches. It has been believed that he will make a push to exit the club in the January transfer window, but Manchester beat him to it, and he will now be free to choose his next destination.

La Liga president Javier Tebas has expressed his desire for former Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo to return to the Spanish top flight. This comes after weeks of speculation regarding Ronaldo’s reported dissatisfaction with life at Manchester United, as well as his desire to play Champions League football next season.

Ronaldo has been linked with a potential move to Atletico Madrid, a club with which his agent Jorge Mendes has enjoyed a good relationship. Still, such rumors have not gone down well with the Atleti fanbase due to the 37-year-old player’s bad blood with the club during his time as a Real Madrid player.

“Whether it is feasible or not for Atletico Madrid, I do not know. There would have to be some player departures if they wanted to [sign him]. To sign a player of that level, you must make room [financially],” Tebas admitted, despite stating that he would like to see the Portuguese forward return to La Liga.

Atletico’s president Enrique Cerezo has struck down the possibility of Ronaldo moving to the club, calling the move “practically impossible”. Still, Ronaldo’s future remains in the balance. After missing Man Utd’s pre-season tour of Thailand and Australia due to personal reasons, the veteran striker arrived at the Red Devils’ training ground on Tuesday and engaged in discussions with head coach Erik ten Hag.

It turns out that signing star forward Sadio Mane from Liverpool could be just the beginning of a busy summer for Bayern Munich. According to multiple reports, the Bundesliga giants are considering making a move for Manchester United’s Cristiano Ronaldo if Robert Lewandowski leaves the club.

Lewandowski has one year left on his deal and has said multiple times that he wants to leave Germany this summer. The 33-year-old has been linked with several clubs, but La Liga giants Barcelona are current favorites to sign him. However, that is if Bayern softens its stance. 

Despite being in risk of losing Lewandowski on a free transfer next summer, Bayern has been surprisingly patient. The club is asking for €40 million to let the Polish striker leave early and is willing to keep him another year if their price tag isn’t met.

On the other hand, Ronaldo is disillusioned in Manchester after a disappointing 2021-22 campaign. He believes the club isn’t ready to fight for trophies as currently constructed and fears that he’ll fail to add more trophies to his resume if he remains at Old Trafford. The 37-year-old is keen to go somewhere where he can win right away, and Bayern presents an ideal opportunity for that.

It remains to be seen how the German club feels about the matter, but it is hard to see them passing on arguably the greatest soccer player of all time despite his advanced age.

Cristiano Ronaldo is making a sensational return to Manchester United. The Premier League giants confirmed the move on their social media on Friday.

According to reports, Man Utd will pay Juventus close to $20 million transfer fee for Ronaldo. The agreement between the two sides includes $10 million in add-ons as well.

“Manchester United is delighted to confirm that the club has reached agreement with Juventus for the transfer of Cristiano Ronaldo, subject to agreement of personal terms, visa and medical,” said United in a statement.

Ronaldo reportedly didn’t take part in Friday’s training for Juventus ahead of the move. He just visited his teammates to say goodbye and later left Italy in a private jet.

Ronaldo was previously close to joining United’s crosstown rivals Man City, and even had discussions with the club’s manager Pep Guardiola. But the deal never got across the line as Man City was looking to get Ronaldo for free, considering that the move would save Juve more than $30 million in wages. Seria A club, on the other hand, wanted at least $25 million in order to sanction the transfer.

Manchester United exploited City’s hesitance and came in with an offer that satisfied both the team and the player. Ronaldo now returns to the club for which he played six seasons between 2003 and 2009. He won three Premier League trophies and Championship League in Manchester while also picking up a number of individual awards.

Cristiano Ronaldo spent the last three seasons with Juventus, arriving in Italy in a $120 million transfer in 2018. Ronaldo played 134 games for the club, scoring 101 goals in all competitions. He also helped Juve win two Seria A titles and Copa Italia trophy.

Paris Saint-Germain and Brazil forward Neymar played with some of the biggest names in soccer during his career, but there’s one player he would particularly like to share jersey with. Unsurprisingly, that player is Cristiano Ronaldo.

Neymar, who recently penned a new deal with PSG until 2025, revealed this in a recent interview with GQ.

“I want to play with Cristiano Ronaldo,” said Neymar. “I have already played with great players, like [Lionel] Messi and [Kylian] Mbappe, but I haven’t played with Cristiano Ronaldo yet.”

Neymar already has a stellar supporting cast in Paris, playing alongside the likes of Kylian Mbappe, Angel Di Maria, and Marco Verratti. But despite a stacked team, PSG hasn’t been able to get to a Champions League trophy.

Having Ronaldo on his side would probably make this feat easier for Neymar. The Portuguese superstar has topped the competition five times, winning one with Manchester United and four with Real Madrid.

Cristiano Ronaldo is currently enjoying a lukewarm season with Juventus, and the chatter of him leaving Seria A giants is growing louder by day. While Real seems to be in play as his next destination, heading to France might also be on the cards, according to multiple reports. So don’t be surprised if you see Neymar getting his wish true as soon as this summer.

“Real Madrid would like to communicate that we have listened to the wish and request expressed by player Cristiano Ronaldo and have agreed to his transfer to Juventus FC,” – said Real Madrid in an official statement following the transfer.

Real Madrid did make a final push to convince Ronald to stay and offered him an improved contract, which would see the 33-year-old earning $64.5 million, compared to $45.2 million he was getting from his existing deal. The player still refused the offer in favor of moving to Italy.

“These years at Real Madrid and in this city of Madrid have quite possibly been the happiest years of my life,” – said Ronaldo in a statement. “I only have feelings of great gratitude to this club, to the fans and to the city. I can only give thanks to all of them for the love and affection that I have received. However, I feel that the time has come to begin a new stage of my life and that is why I have asked the club to accept my transfer. I feel it this way and I am asking everyone, and especially my fans, so please understand me.“

Cristiano Ronaldo joined Real Madrid in 2009 from Manchester United in a transfer worth around $100 million. During his time in Madrid, Ronaldo scored 450 goals in 438 appearances while winning numerous individual honors including four Ballon d’Or awards. He also helped Real win four Champions League titles and two La Liga trophies.
