Former SBS soccer commentator Lucy Zelic has ruffled fans' feathers by revealing that Cristiano Ronaldo's megabucks contract to play for a Saudi Arabian team has made her 'sad'.
The former Manchester United star has put pen to paper on a two-year, $310million-a-season deal to play for the Al-Nassr team in the Saudi Pro League in a decision that effectively ends his career in the top level of the sport.
The team announced the 37-year-old's arrival on social media with the words: 'The world's greatest athlete has officially signed for Al-Nassr.'
That news didn't sit well with Zelic, who tweeted, 'This just makes me sad for a variety of reasons' above a link to a story about the Portuguese legend's new job.
