Ronaldo signs the most lucrative contract in sports history

40-year-old forward Cristiano Ronaldo has signed the most lucrative contract in the history of sports, extending his contract with Al-Nasri for two years.

According to the contract, he will earn about 492 million pounds sterling (575.64 million euros) per year. This is reported by The Sun.

According to the source, in addition to the annual salary of £ 178 million, Ronaldo will receive a bonus of £ 24.5 million, which will increase to £ 38 million if the striker stays at the club for the second year of the contract. In addition, Ronaldo will now own a 15% stake in Al-Nasr, valued at £33 million.

He will receive a £4 million bonus if he wins the Saudi Arabian Golden Boot and £8 million if Al-Nasr wins the cup.

Ronaldo will also sign sponsorship deals with Saudi companies that could earn him up to £60 million. The 40-year-old will have 16 employees: three drivers, four maids, two cooks, three gardeners, and four security guards. It is said that Ronaldo will have the opportunity to increase his income thanks to other bonuses offered by Al-Nasr, as a result of which he could earn more than £500 million during his two-year stay at the Saudi club.
