Cristiano Ronaldo has declared that he'll be staying in the Saudi Pro League for a second season.
The Portuguese superstar, 37, made his future plans clear amid widespread reports suggesting that former Real Madrid team-mate Karim Benzema is expected in Saudi Arabia next week to sign for a rival club. Benzema, who enjoyed nine years playing alongside Ronaldo at Real, is set to earn an eye-watering £345million over two years should the transfer go through.
A reunion with his old colleague - who plays for Riyadh-based side Al-Nassr - wasn't always certain, though, as the ex- Manchester United hero's own future was shrouded in doubt. After a return to Europe was mooted, Ronaldo has now cleared up the speculation.
