Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to sign a 2 1/2-year contract potentially worth up to €500 million ($530 million) with Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr, per Marca.
The figure equates to approximately $212 million in salary, which would be the richest contract in sports history, as based on annual average value.
Originally, the Portugal star said he wouldn’t make a decision about his playing future until after the men’s World Cup finished. But, apparently those plans changed, because Portugal is still alive and plays Tuesday against Switzerland in the Round of 16.
