Jan 03, 2023 Source: UTNICE More News

On December 31, Al Nassr officially announced that it had officially signed Ronaldo. The 37-year-old Portuguese king also chose to go to West Asia to seek gold like other superstars at the end of his career. It is reported that Ronaldo signed Al Nassr with an annual salary of up to 200 million euros. His salary will surpass Mbappe, Messi and others, and he will become the highest paid player in active football. And Ronaldo's debut is basically confirmed. On January 5, Ronaldo is expected to make his debut in West Asia.

After playing for Sporting CP, Manchester United F.C., Real Madrid CF and Juventus F.C., Ronaldo came to the fifth club of his career. Compared with Manchester United, Real Madrid are the top European giants. Al Nassr, which was established in 1955, is much younger. Al Nassr has won 9 Saudi top league championships, 6 Saudi King Cup championships, and won the Asian Cup Winners Cup and Asian Super Cup double in 1998. It's just that the last time they won the league trophy was the 2018-2019 season. As for the AFC Champions League, Al Nassr has never won the championship, and they signed Ronaldo, and the AFC Champions League championship seems to be their top priority.

In the Saudi league this season, Al Nassr's record is very impressive. With 7 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in the first 10 rounds, they temporarily rank second in the standings, only 2 points away from Al Shabab Riyadh, who is at the top of the list. In a match on January 1, Al Nassr defeated Al Khaleej 1-0. However, considering that Ronaldo has just officially joined, he did not participate in this competition. On January 5th, Al Nassr will face Hatayspor, and Ronaldo is expected to usher in his debut. According to the Saudi media, Ronaldo is ready to play for this game. After all, it did not appear in the official competition after the top 8 of the World Cup. It is worth mentioning that if he can score 2 goals in this game, Ronaldo will become the first player in football to complete the feat of 500 goals in the league.

In addition, there are many familiar faces in the Al Nassr team. Talisca, a Brazilian midfielder who once played for Guangzhou F.C., plays here. Talisca has scored 9 goals in 8 games this season and is the team's top scorer. At the same time, Gustavo, who played for FC Bayern Munchen, and Ospina, who was the main goalkeeper for Naples for a while at Arsenal, all played for Al Nassr. It is worth mentioning that before Ronaldo joined Al Nassr, the team had only 860,000 ins fans. But in just a few hours after Ronaldo joined, their number of fans has soared to 2.13 million. From another point of view, even if you come to West Asia, you can't resist the team's attention to Ronaldo.

In any case, Ronaldo is also a super idol in the minds of many fans. Although his personal character has caused a lot of controversy, his contribution to football cannot be denied. He has left a series of indelible records in football, and it will be difficult for players to achieve his achievements in the future. Now coming to Asian football at the end of his career, he is the biggest foreign player in the history of the Saudi League and even Asian football. Next, Ronaldo is expected to play in the AFC Champions League, and may even have the opportunity to play against teams from the Chinese Super League. And as his die-hard fan, I only hope that he can continue his limited career time in West Asia.
