Half a million a day and Al Nassr’s percentage: the details of Ronaldo’s renewal
Saudi club officials have given 5 percent of the club’s shares to the Portuguese forward, who will remain at the top of the list of highest-paid footballers
Cristiano Ronaldo is on the verge of a multi-million dollar renewal with Al Nassr and new details about the Saudi club’s irresistible offer were shared by Marca newspaper on Wednesday .
In a demonstration of admiration and confidence in the Portuguese forward, those responsible for the Riyadh club included in the renewal proposal a small percentage of participation in the club, which is undergoing a structural change, marked by the arrival of a new CEO and a new president in recent months.
Days after the national team captain expressed his intention to become a club owner, Al Nassr’s owners have shown themselves willing to grant him a 5 percent stake, thus keeping the 39-year-old linked to the Saudi club even after he hangs up his boots.
The salary issue is another factor that could convince Cristiano Ronaldo to stay with Al Nassr until 2026, namely an income that keeps him at the top of the highest-earning footballers in the world. We are talking about 183 million euros (year), which translates into €15.25 million per month and around half a million euros per day.
