The Portuguese star has received very lucrative offers to leave the Saudi team in recent months.
Ronaldo remains in Saudi Arabia
Cristiano Ronaldo will continue to make history in Saudi Arabia. As revealed by the BBC, the Portuguese star has opted to extend his contract with Al-Nassr for another two seasons, ensuring his stay at the Riyadh club at least until the summer of 2027. The player’s current contract was supposed to expire on June 30, but after weeks of uncertainty and rumours of a possible transfer, his continuation has now been confirmed.

In recent months, there has been speculation that several clubs were interested in signing him for the upcoming Club World Cup, but Ronaldo has chosen to continue in the Saudi team, where he has become an absolute idol. Since arriving in 2022, he has scored 99 goals in 111 official games, making his mark with his usual goalscoring prowess and leadership qualities.
CR7 confirms loyalty
Moreover, this new period will start under new coaching, after Stefano Pioli recently left the club. It is expected that the team’s new coach can further improve the performance of the experienced goalscorer, who is still competing at the top level at the age of 40.
With this contract extension, Cristiano reaffirms his commitment to Al-Nassr’s ambitious project, which aims to establish himself as one of the great powers of Asian football. His continued stay is undoubtedly excellent news both for the club and for Saudi football in general.
In other words, it is football and not money that is the driving force for Cristiano Ronaldo.
