Month after terminating his contract with Manchester United, Portugal player, Cristiano Ronaldo, has reportedly signed a two-year deal with Saudi side Al Nassr.
The report making rounds also claimed Ronaldo who will be 38 years by January 2023 will be unveiled on Saturday December 31, 2022 after agreeing £62million-a-year contract.
It is believed he will be announced after Al-Nassr’s game with Al-Khaleej at the weekend, with Ronaldo expected to live in Al Muhammadiyah, TheSun reports.
The report also states the first part of his medical has been completed and that the second stage will be conducted in Riyadh.
Ronaldo has been heavily linked with a move to Saudi ever since his United deal was terminated following an explosive interview with Piers Morgan.
Earlier this month, there were reports of a £173-million-a-year deal being offered by a Saudi club to try and tempt Ronaldo to sign.
He has also been linked with Al-Hilal, although it was believed he still wanted to play in the Champions League this season.
And during his interview with Morgan, Ronaldo confirmed he had turned down £3m per week to play in Saudi.
Al Nassr, who have also been linked with a move for Ronaldo’s ex-Real Madrid team-mate Sergio Ramos, currently sit second in the Saudi Pro League table after seven wins from their opening 10 games.
Ronaldo’s last match came at the World Cup when he was brought off the bench in Portugal’s quarter-final defeat to Morocco.
