Cristiano Ronaldo's lucrative contract with Al Nassr and his impact on Saudi football, despite recent controversy and impressive on-field performance.

Cristiano Ronaldo, the renowned footballer, has made headlines once again with his lucrative contract with Saudi football club, Al Nassr. The Portuguese player, who left Manchester United in 2022, signed a deal that will keep him with Al Nassr until 2025. Ronaldo's staggering annual salary of £177 million places him among the highest-paid athletes globally, earning an impressive £3,403,846 per week and £486,263 per day. Since joining Al Nassr 67 weeks ago, Ronaldo has amassed a jaw-dropping £228 million.

Ronaldo's move to Al Nassr has not only elevated his own status but has also brought attention to Saudi football, attracting other top players like Neymar, Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, Karim Benzema, Riyad Mahrez, and Ruben Neves to regional teams in Saudi Arabia. The five-time Ballon d'Or winner has showcased his talent on the field, scoring 56 goals in 62 games, including multiple hat tricks.

However, Ronaldo's recent behavior during the Al-Nassr vs Al Hilal match raised eyebrows, as he was caught elbowing Ali Al-Bulaihi in the chest, resulting in a red card. Despite this incident, Ronaldo continues to dominate the football scene, both on and off the field. Most recently, he was spotted enjoying a beach vacation with his partner, Georgina Rodriguez.
