Cristiano Ronaldo has once again broken new ground—this time with a record-smashing contract extension at Al-Nassr that will see him earn more than $1 million per day.
The 39-year-old forward has officially signed a two-year extension with the Saudi Pro League side, keeping him at Al-Nassr until mid-2027. The total value of the contract is estimated between $620 million and $936 million, depending on bonuses and equity.
These figures place Ronaldo far ahead of any other footballer in terms of salary, even eclipsing the contracts of fellow Saudi League stars and elite European players.
With daily earnings estimated between $645,000 and $1.29 million, Ronaldo effectively becomes a millionaire every 18 to 24 hours. The deal is not just the most lucrative in football history—it rivals earnings across all sports.
Impact on Al-Nassr and Saudi Pro League
Beyond the pitch, this contract makes Ronaldo a partial owner of Al-Nassr, giving him long-term ties to the club’s development and image. His continued presence in Saudi Arabia is a major win for the league, which has used marquee signings to attract global viewership and increase its competitiveness.
Ronaldo’s Statement
Cristiano Ronaldo, responding to speculation about his future, said:
“Al-Nassr forever! I’m proud to continue building history here. The future is bright.”
This statement signals his commitment not only to Al-Nassr, but also to being a central figure in the rise of Saudi football on the global stage.
