Wherever Cristiano Ronaldo goes, the world follows. The Portuguese superstar has helped the Saudi Pro League experience significant growth in popularity since his move to Al-Nassr. On the pitch, the 40-year-old has produced the goods consistently.

Cristiano Ronaldo preferred to take a rest rather than play in the revamped Club World Cup, he said on Saturday after renewing his contract with Al Nassr.

Cristiano Ronaldo has signed a new contract to remain at Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr. Ronaldo, 40, was out of contract with the Saudi Pro League side who he joined in 2023 from Manchester United and it appeared he would be moving on. But both he and the club announced on Thursday that he has signed a new contract which runs until 2027.
