A $200 million per year offer for Cristiano Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo finally can get a club to play for, with Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr making a serious offer to sign the player. It is the second offer made by the club after the first offer in the summer came with a refusal from the player. The player is out of contract after mutually ending the contract with Manchester United last month.

Fabrizio Romano, in his tweet, said that the offer is on the table for a player who will earn $200 million per year until 2025. Although there are a few barriers to the deal to go through. The image rights agreement might be the biggest obstacle in the deal, as per the transfer expert.
