Cristiano Ronaldo, who turned 40 this year, looks poised to sign a new contract with Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr. His goal-scoring prowess continues to impress; he scored 32 goals in 35 appearances, marking a remarkable return to form. The new deal could extend his stay until the end of the 2026/27 season, allowing him to potentially reach 1,000 career goals. Despite the less intense competition in Saudi Arabia, his achievements remain significant as he aims to extend his legacy after a stellar career across major European clubs.
Ronaldo celebrated his 40th birthday in February and has continued to score goals at a prolific rate in the early weeks of his fifth decade on planet earth.
Marca writes that a new one-year deal, which includes the option of a second for the player, is 'about to be signed'.
By then, Ronaldo will have turned 42, but there is every chance that he could also have reached 1,000 career goals.
With it, an extension of his already world-leading wages of 200m per season.
