Ronaldo Terrifies Sheikhs and Lands an Unbelievable Contract Along with Al Nassr Shares

The new agreement was set for one year, but Europe could forget the legend.

The calendar year for Cristiano Ronaldo kicked off with another record and news of a contract extension. But that's not all — the Portuguese star has dived into the sports business and will soon become a shareholder of a football club. All of this in just the first 15 days of the new year.

The 39-year-old forward achieved a unique milestone on January 9, scoring another professional goal. No one in history has scored goals for 24 consecutive years, and Ronaldo became the first to do so, starting 2025 with success. In recent months, there were rumors that Ronaldo might return to Europe, and the Portuguese did not deny the possibility. However, the reputable publication Marca reported that Saudi Arabia is the only country where Ronaldo has played but not yet claimed a league title. Fixing that is his main goal for now.

Soon after, news emerged about a possible one-year contract extension with a salary of €200 million. However, the deal became even more intriguing due to one specific clause. After signing the new agreement, Ronaldo will acquire a 5% stake in Al Nassr, making him an active player-shareholder of the club.

For Ronaldo, this is a new experience and an entirely new area, not only in business but also in sports. In recent years, the Portuguese superstar has succeeded in everything he tries. His media ventures alone are remarkable: launching a YouTube channel, breaking countless platform records, and becoming the first person in the world to reach one billion social media followers. Remarkably, these pursuits have not hindered Ronaldo's professional career. In the final months of last year, he delivered a series of impressive goal-scoring performances.

Ronaldo is one of the greatest players of our time, consistently proving that determination and drive can lead to incredible achievements. Throughout his career, the Portuguese star has set an outstanding example of working tirelessly to achieve results. The key is for him to bring the same relentless focus to his off-the-pitch ventures.
