According to rumours from Spain, Cristiano Ronaldo will sign a deal with Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr on January 1.

Following his spectacular departure from Manchester United just two days before the start of the World Cup, the Portuguese superstar appears to have finally found a new club.


The contract is said to be one of the richest in sports history, and the five-time Ballon d'Or winner may earn up to €200 million (£172 million) per season.


According to MARCA, Ronaldo will sign a contract with Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr at the beginning of the next month, the Daily Mail has learned.


The outlet suggests that the initial deal will be worth close to $100 million (£86 million), but will be incentivised by additional agreements such as advertisements and sponsorship partnerships.


The 37-year-old became a free agent at the end of last month after his fragile relationship with club officials worsened when he made a number of inflammatory statements in a TV interview with Piers Morgan.


The attacker has not commented on his future throughout Portugal's run to the round of 16 at the World Cup, but it appears he has been working behind the scenes to finalize a contract.


Al-Nassr are one of the most successful clubs in Saudi Arabia, having been proclaimed winners of the country’s top division nine times, with their most recent triumph coming in 2019.


Al-Nassr may not have won the league in 2020 and 2021, but they did win the Saudi Super Cup both years.


However, the club has struggled to create a global impact, although they did compete in the Club World Cup during the 1999-2000 season.


That year, in their group, they faced Real Madrid and lost 3-1, with Nicolas Anelka and Raul scoring for the Spanish giants.


The Saudi heavyweights also presently boast a few big-name talents of the past in the form of former Arsenal goalkeeper David Ospina, Brazilian midfielder Luiz Gustavo, and Cameroonian attacker Vincent Aboubakar, who scored a contender for goal of the tournament at the Qatar World Cup last week.


They play at Wool Park, which has a capacity of 25,000, a substantial drop from playing in front of 74,310 at Old Trafford.


Between March 2018 and March 2020, their chairman, Musalli Almuammar, was the president of the entire division, the Saudi Pro League.


He is presently a consultant for the General Entertainment Authority, a Saudi Arabian government agency that supervises the entertainment industry.


Sportsmail exclusively revealed earlier this month that Ronaldo would kiss goodbye to £16 million after it was confirmed that he had left Manchester United by mutual consent with immediate effect earlier this month following his explosive two-part interview with Morgan on TalkTV.


Since Ronaldo's explosive interview, in which he criticized United owner Ed Woodward and manager Erik ten Hag, Premier League rival Chelsea have also cooled their interest in Ronaldo.


Oliver Kahn, the chief executive officer of Bayern Munich, ruled out a move for Ronaldo after the Portugal superstar became a free agent last month.


"We have already dealt with this," Kahn told Sky Sports Germany. "We have a clear idea, a clear philosophy, of how our squad should be put together."


"We all appreciate him; there’s no discussion."


"We all adore Cristiano Ronaldo, but this does not fit with our concept."
