Ronaldo left MU before the 2022 World Cup after the two sides agreed to terminate the contract ahead of time. This move comes after CR7’s shocking interview with Piers Morgan, where Ronaldo criticized Erik ten Hag and the leadership of the “Red Devils”.
Ronaldo has agreed to join the Saudi Arabian club
The 37-year-old striker is now free to sign with any club and sources close to the team reveal that the Portugal captain has found a “new landing”. Spanish newspaper Marca reported that Cr7 had accepted a two-and-a-half-year contract with a salary of £173 million a year with Al Nassr club in the top league in Saudi Arabia.
In the above interview, Ronaldo once revealed that he had turned down a £306 million offer to move to a Saudi club this past summer. Instead, he decided to stay at Old Trafford, but played only 520 minutes in the Premier League and scored 1 goal.
