Cristiano Ronaldo signs contract for Saudi club Al Nassr

MADRID, Dec 31 — Former Manchester United and Real Madrid great Cristiano Ronaldo has signed a contract to join Al Nassr, according to the Saudi club.

A post on the club’s official Instagram account, which also appeared on Ronaldo’s, showed the 37-year-old Portuguese posing with the club’s shirt, the German Press Agency (dpa) reported.

And an accompanying message said: “This is more than history in the making.

“This is a signing that will not only inspire our club to achieve even greater success but inspire our league, our nation and future generations, boys and girls to be the best version of themselves. Welcome @cristiano to your new home @alnassr_fc.”

Ronaldo’s second spell with Manchester United ended in November with his departure by mutual consent, shortly after he criticised the club in an explosive interview with TalkTV.
