1. Ronaldo Isn’t Leaving After All
Despite strong hints that he might exit Saudi Arabia, Cristiano Ronaldo shocked fans by signing a two-year contract extension with Al-Nassr, ending speculation of a return to Europe.
2. He’s Staying Until 2027
Al-Nassr made it official via social media: “Cristiano Ronaldo is staying at @AlNassrFC until 2027.” That’s three more seasons of CR7 magic in Saudi football.
3. Massive Paycheck Incoming
Ronaldo will reportedly earn a mind-blowing £178 million per year—which amounts to roughly INR 2000 crore or €400 million over the next two seasons.
4. Unreal Performance Bonuses
The deal includes eye-watering incentives: £8M if Al-Nassr wins the league, £5M for an Asian Champions League title, and £4M if Ronaldo wins the golden boot.
5. A Stake in the Club
As part of the deal, Ronaldo now owns 15% of Al-Nassr, estimated at around £33 million, making him not just a player, but also part-owner.
6. Scoring is Even More Rewarding
Ronaldo will earn £80,000 per goal and £40,000 per assist, with both amounts increasing by 20% in the second year. Every stat literally counts.
7. Sponsorship and Lifestyle Perks
The contract includes £60 million worth of sponsorship deals and £4 million in private jet expenses fully covered—because of course it does.

8. He Came, He Scored, But No Titles Yet
Even though Ronaldo has been Saudi Pro League’s top scorer, Al-Nassr has yet to win the league during his tenure and recently missed out on the FIFA Club World Cup.
9. Changing His Tune
Just last month, he posted “This chapter is over” after finishing third in the league. But the right offer—and maybe a bigger vision—seems to have changed his mind.
10. More Than a Player, He’s a Movement
According to Saudi sources, Ronaldo has elevated the league, opened doors for global talent, and become central to PIF’s football ambitions, which include control over clubs like Al-Nassr and Al Hilal.
Conclusion
Cristiano Ronaldo’s extended stay at Al-Nassr marks more than just a contract—it’s a symbol of his evolving legacy. With unmatched financial perks and club ownership, he’s redefining what it means to be a global football icon. While titles have eluded him so far, his influence on Saudi football is undeniable. Whether it’s goals or growth, Ronaldo remains at the center of the action.
