Cristiano Ronaldo ’s Al-Nassr have been hit with a FIFA ban preventing them from registering new players.
The nine-time Saudi champions became one of the first clubs to secure a big name within the footballing landscape as they secured a deal for the former Manchester United forward. The Portuguese is earning £173m a year in the Gulf state and his arrival has led to an influx of stars to Saudi Arabia..
He was joined by former Real Madrid teammate Karim Benzema in the country, the Frenchman completing a move to Al-Ittihad, where he's been joined by N'Golo Kante. Al-Nassr have continued their big-spending, adding Croatian midfielder Marcelo Brozovic from Inter Milan, while Italy international Domenico Berardi and Chelsea's Hakim Ziyech are among the names to have been linked with a move to the club.
