Since the beginning of 2023, Cristiano Ronaldo is a player of Al-Nassr. The player signed as a free agent after leaving Manchester United and his arrival in Saudi Arabia was a real image blow for Al Nasr.

Al-Nassr: More than 20 million followers in just 10 months after Cristiano Ronaldo’s arrival

The transfer of Cristiano Ronaldo to Saudi Arabia was a real success for both the country and the Saudi Professional League.

The conflict that broke out between the Lusitanian and Erik ten Haag led to Cristiano being separated from the group at Old Trafford, and Al-Nassr took full advantage of the rift.

The team from Saudi Arabia made Cristiano an irresistible offer and concluded a two-year contract with him with an option to extend for another season and an annual salary of more than 200 million euros.

With his move to Arabia, Cristiano Ronaldo has indirectly encouraged other footballers to come and play in the tournament, and the country’s officials plan to make him an ambassador for the World Cup if it is held in Saudi Arabia in 2030.

Al-Nassr has taken full advantage of Ronaldo’s arrival and his social media accounts have seen historic growth.

While the club’s Instagram account had just 800,000 followers when he arrived in Saudi Arabia, today Al-Nassr has more than 20 million followers, who are clearly attracted to Cristiano Ronaldo’s presence.

In 30 matches for Al-Nassr, the Portuguese footballer scored 25 goals and provided 8 assists.

Foreign media reports that Ronaldo has already told the management that he wants to leave the Saudi Arabian first league team.
