Al Nassr striker Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly agreed to extend his contract with the club, ensuring he remains the “highest-paid player in history,” according to Goal.
Ronaldo is believed to be close to finalising a deal worth £173 million per season. His current contract is set to expire this summer, but the 39-year-old appears ready to continue his career with the Saudi Pro League side.
While Ronaldo has been linked to other clubs, including Al Hilal, where Neymar Jr. currently plays, reports suggest he is more interested in competing with them rather than joining their ranks.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner is now seeking assurances from Al Nassr regarding significant investments in the summer transfer window.
Ronaldo has scored an impressive 81 goals in 90 appearances for Al Nassr, adding to his remarkable record of achieving over 100 goals at former clubs Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus.
