Former Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo is reportedly on the brink of signing a seven-year deal with a new club.
The Portugal forward is believed to be set to join Al Nassr in a record-breaking deal that will see him become football's highest-paid player of all time.

Per the Daily Mail, he will earn a massive £175 million (R3.6 billion) a year with the Saudi Arabian club.
A further update has now been offered by Marca, who report that Ronaldo will sign a seven-year deal with the Middle East side as opposed to the two-and-a-half-year contract that had previously been suggested.
It is claimed Ronaldo will play for the first two-and-a-half years of the deal before taking up an ambassadorial role, upon which his payment terms will reportedly increase.
It is believed the plan is for the ex-Real Madrid talisman to help Saudi Arabia in their bid to jointly host the 2030 FIFA World Cup along with Egypt and Greece through his ambassadorial role.
Marca also stated that Al Nassr are ready to part ways with a trio of stars in order to free up space financially to sign the 37-year-old.
