Just when people thought Cristiano Ronaldo might be considering his next big move, he’s doubled down on life in Saudi Arabia—with a deal so massive it almost feels like fiction.
At 40 years old, CR7 is not slowing down—in fact, he’s laughing all the way to the bank.
The Numbers Are on Another Planet
Let’s start with the basics: Ronaldo’s new contract with Al Nassr isn’t just about football—it’s about generational wealth.
He’s reportedly earning £3.4 million per week, which stacks up to £178 million a year. And that’s just the start.
There’s a £24.5 million signing bonus, which can grow to £38 million if he stays for a second year.
Every time he scores, he pockets £80,000—and that figure jumps by 20% next season.
Assists? That’s £40,000 each, also with a 20% bump next year.
If Al Nassr win the Saudi Pro League, he bags another £8 million.
If he’s the top scorer? Add £4 million. Win the Asian Champions League? That’s an extra £6.5 million.
He’s Also Becoming Part Owner
One of the most surprising elements? Ronaldo now owns 15% of Al Nassr—a stake valued at around £33 million.
It’s not just a football contract anymore; it’s an empire in the making.
Add to that another £60 million in sponsorship deals lined up through Saudi and Asian markets, and it’s clear that Ronaldo’s move to the Middle East was about far more than just the game.
Life Off the Pitch Just Got Even More Luxurious
The Ronaldo family’s lifestyle is being upgraded too.
Included in the contract are 16 full-time staff members—that’s right, sixteen.
That includes three drivers, four housekeepers, two chefs, three gardeners, and four security personnel.
On top of that? A £4 million private jet. Because of course.
Still Chasing the League Title
Even with all these perks, Ronaldo isn’t just collecting checks—he’s still chasing trophies.
Last season, he scored 25 goals in 30 league games, pushing his Saudi Pro League tally to 74 goals in 77 appearances.
But despite those numbers, he still hasn’t lifted the league title with Al Nassr.
That missing silverware might just be his final motivation to keep pushing on the pitch.
Is It All Just Too Much?
With figures this astronomical, it’s fair to ask the question—is it too much for one footballer? At 40 years old, Ronaldo has managed to redefine what it means to be a global sports brand, but for some, the sheer size of this deal might raise eyebrows.
