The 40-year-old is currently taking home an annual salary of €200 million (£172m), and this new deal is set to eclipse that figure.

Ronaldo will therefore remain the highest-paid footballer for the foreseeable future, and he will earn over £ 516 million if he does spend another three years in Saudi Arabia.

It’s also been claimed that CR7 will be given a five per cent shareholding in Al-Nassr, which will undoubtedly be worth a lot.
