Just half a season after landing in the Saudi League, Portuguese star Ronaldo reported that he wanted to return to Europe to play, which is not for nothing, but the Saudi League is not conducive to Ronaldo's personal development. This season, Riyadh's victory probability is empty, the AFC Champions League and the domestic cup have long been out, in the league, they are 3 points behind the top Etihad, the initiative to compete for the title is not in their hands, many disobedience on this Saudi giant, which makes Ronaldo deeply uneasy.
According to the original plan, Ronaldo originally thought that he would come to Asia at the end of his career, with super personal strength to carry out dimensionality reduction strikes, in order to add a few championships to his credit book, but several strong teams in the league did not give face, so that fans put the blame for losing the championship on Ronaldo's head, at the same time, as a competitor of the same period, Messi ushered in the most brilliant year, whenever fans and media brought the two together for comparison, Ronaldo will always be unwilling, instead of this, it is better to return to Europe and reproduce the direct dialogue between the two kings.
However, Riyadh Victory will never sit idly by, in order to welcome Ronaldo, the club spent huge manpower, material and financial resources, the entire King's University Stadium was built like a royal palace, is for Ronaldo to play here with peace of mind, in addition, the club also hired 8 Portuguese assistant coaches and logistics support team many people, are serving Ronaldo, these people's expenses are huge, far beyond imagination, in addition, Riyadh Victory also offered Ronaldo 200 million contracts and 100 million signing fees.
In the end, Riyadh victory will not do loss-making business, since Ronaldo came, there is infinite value, the team's No. 7 jersey has been in short supply for nearly half a year, it can be seen that Ronaldo to Saudi Arabia brings enough revenue to make up for hundreds of millions of contracts, and according to Saudi domestic media OKAZ, Riyadh victory home games are hard to find, previously only Saudi Arabia and a small number of fans from other Asian countries came here to watch, but this year, many European and South American fans also came to Riyadh to watch the game, they are rushing to Ronaldo.
The news that Ronaldo may leave Saudi Arabia also spread to the owner of Riyadh Victory - Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who is also an avid fan of Ronaldo, it is reported that the crown prince decided to increase the total value of Ronaldo's contract to 300 million euros per year, the specific income composition includes salary income, advertising endorsements and winning bonuses, according to the original contract, Ronaldo's annual income is already the highest among footballers in the world, and now it is staggering to increase the contract value again.
Saudi media also pointed out that Salman is not just making changes to the player's contract, he wants to keep Ronaldo for a long time, preferably retiring in Saudi Arabia, for this reason, Salman intends to give away a stake in the club, but not a stake in Riyadh Victory. Everyone knows that Newcastle United in the Premier League and Riyadh Victory are the same boss, Newcastle as a new giant, the future development potential is limitless, Salman is using Newcastle's shares as a bargaining chip to tie Ronaldo, which is really an amplified move.
