Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo, 37, will earn €200m from promoting Saudi Arabia’s bid for the 2030 World Cup in addition to his club salary. This was reported to AFP by a source close to the Saudi club An-Nasr, where the striker recently moved.
In general, the role of the ambassador will bring the football player more than €400 million ($428 million) in income in Saudi Arabia. “Ronaldo will be paid more than €200 million ($214 million) for the deal,” a source with knowledge of the deal said.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner, who has also won the Champions League five times and holds the record for most goals scored in that competition, is expected to make his debut for An-Nasr on 22 January. His previous club, Manchester United, Cristiano Ronaldo left in the end of November.
Al-Nasr is a nine-time Saudi Arabian champion but has never won the Asian Champions League.
