Cristiano Ronaldo is on the verge of signing an astronomical contract extension with Al Nassr, which will ensure that the Portuguese player remains the highest-paid player in the world. However, that is only one of the perks of the mouth-watering contract.

Fans of rival teams which Al Nassr face at away games greet Cristiano Ronaldo with chants of: “Messi, Messi, Messi...” The taunts have hit harder this season, as it appears, once again that the side from Riyadh will end the campaign empty handed after slipping up to Al Taawoun on Friday night as both sides shared a 1-1 draw.

Cristiano Ronaldo, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner, who received the Best Middle East Player Award at the Globe Soccer Awards, expressed his desire to become a club owner at the event. " I am still very young, I have so many plans and dreams ahead. Mark my words, I will be the owner of a big club. For sure," he said at the ceremony.

Al-Nassr fans have hailed Aymeric Laporte, with one claiming that he is more important than Cristiano Ronaldo after he scored during their 1-1 draw against Al-Taawoun.
