Superstar soccer player Cristiano Ronaldo recently agreed to a new two-year contract with Saudi Pro League club Al-Nassr, and the details are almost impossible to believe.
Ronaldo first joined the club in December of 2022 under a cloud of controversy as many accused the Saudi PIF of using the Portuguese legend to “sportswash” ahead of a bid to host the 2034 FIFA World Cup. Ronaldo’s initial contract included a guaranteed football salary of $105 million, with commercial and sponsorship deals bringing his total annual salary to $234 million.
Al-Nassr won neither the Saudi Pro League nor the Asian AFC Champions League over the last three seasons, but still decided to bring Ronaldo back on a new two-year deal, the details of which are astounding.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s New Contract With Al-Nassr Includes Wild Payment And Perks
According to a report from UK tabloid The Sun, Ronaldo is set to earn $243 million per year, which works out to $4.7 million per week. He also gets a 33 percent ownership stake in the club, currently valued at $45 million. Incentives include $110,000 per goal scored and $55,000 per assist. Additionally, there are up to $25 million in team incentives and he has 16 full-time staff members, including housekeepers, chefs, gardeners, and security guards.
But wait, there’s more! Should Ronaldo want to travel at all, he has $5.5 million worth of private jet expenses, which are covered by the club. Safe to say, Cristiano Ronaldo is going to be living good in Saudi Arabia.
Meanwhile, even at 41 years old, he’s considered a genuine candidate to not only play, but also start for Portugal at the 2026 FIFA World Cup next summer in North America. Life is pretty good when you’re one of the greatest soccer players of all time.
