Cristiano Ronaldo was announced as an Al-Nassr player on Tuesday after joining the Saudi Arabian club on a two-and-a-half-year deal.
The Portuguese forward left Manchester United by mutual termination after he went public with his grievances in an interview with Piers Morgan, taking aim at his new manager Erik ten Hag and the Glazer ownership among other things. Given his comments, Ronaldo expected a number of European clubs to come in for him but he ended up at Al-Nassr.
He is, however, receiving a handsome pay packet in the Middle East. With wages and commercial payments, Ronaldo will reportedly earn around £175m per season in Saudi Arabia making him the highest-paid player in football history.
