Cristiano Ronaldo has received a proposal to join a Brazilian club that will compete in the FIFA Club World Cup.
Well, this is what journalist José Félix Díaz, from the Spanish newspaper Marca, published on Sunday (18), highlighting that the supposed hiring would involve "external investors".
The player's staff received an important offer from a Brazilian team. What initially seemed like a market movement without much scope is becoming something that can be transformed into an out-of-market offer with significant contributions from external investors.
Palmeiras, Flamengo, Fluminense, and Botafogo are the Brazilian clubs that will be in the new FIFA tournament, held in the United States, starting in June.
According to the Marca report, the offer, considered "tempting", has put CR7 in a "dilemma".
The offer is tempting and would open the doors to participate in the Club World Cup. Perfectly adapted to Saudi life, the time for decisions has arrived, and what was once a perfect scenario is no longer. And all because of the poor results [at Al-Nassr].
What was a perfect scenario, according to Marca, has to do with the change in the level of Saudi football, given the large investment made.
However, after a season without titles, and without a spot in the next Asian Champions League, the renewal of the Portuguese star's contract, which ends in the middle of the year, with the Saudi club, is no longer a certainty.
According to a report by Marca at the beginning of the year, CR7 would have received a renewal offer, with an annual salary of 183 million euros, to extend the bond until 2026.
At the current exchange rate, the value would reach R$ 1.1 billion – more than R$ 3 million per day.
This contract would make CR7 receive the highest salary in football history, but the title-less season made the agreement, previously considered well-advanced, "go up in the air".
Marca emphasizes that Cristiano Ronaldo asked for reinforcements for this season, but only Duran was hired, something that disappointed the Portuguese star.
At 40 years old, CR7 has played 46 games, scoring 39 goals for Al-Nassr this season, according to the ogol platform.
Owner of five Golden Balls in his career – in 2008, 2013, 2014, 2016, and 2017 –, Cristiano Ronaldo is the all-time top scorer for Real Madrid, with 451 goals, including four Champions League titles.
In his career, the star has 934 goals and is seeking his thousandth.
