Star Portuguese footballer Cristiano Ronaldo has signed a lucrative deal with the Saudi Arabia's Al Nassr club, according to a Saudi Gazette report.

Ronaldo, 37, who led his national team at the Qatar World Cup has been without a club after leaving Manchester United.


The footballer is set to earn at least £175 million annually, the Daily Mail reported.

The total contract is for seven years but he will play with the club only for two-and-a-half years, following which he will be taking ambassadorial role, the report further said.

The forward left Manchester United by mutual consent in November following a controversial interview with TalkTV in which he said he did not respect manager Erik ten Hag.
