Cristiano Ronaldo ‘agrees £173m-a-year’ contract with Saudi Arabia side Al Nassr following Manchester United exit

Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly agreed a two-and-a-half year deal to join Saudi Arabia side Al Nassr.

Ronaldo left Manchester United this month after they agreed to terminate his contract early.

The 37-year-old is now free to sign for any club and reports suggest he has already found his next team.

Spanish publication Marca report he has accepted a two-and-a-half year deal for £173million-a-year with Saudi side Al Nassr.

During his interview with Piers Morgan, Ronaldo previously revealed he rejected a £306m offer to move to a Saudi Arabia side in the summer.

Instead he stayed at Old Trafford, but played just 520 minutes of Premier League action and scored one goal.

Following his exit, Ronaldo released a statement and said: “Following talks with Manchester United, we’ve mutually agreed to end our contract,” the striker sai

“I love Manchester United and I love the fans, that will never ever change.

“It feels like the right time to seek a new challenge. I wish Man Utd all the best.”

For now, Ronaldo will likely have his focus on Portugal and the World Cup.

They have already qualified for the last-16 and face South Korea on Friday in their final group stage game.
