"I can't wait to discover a new football league in a different country," said the former Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus player.

 

"The vision with which Al Nassr operates is very inspiring, and I am delighted to join my teammates, so that together we can help the team achieve greater success," he added.

Al Nassr have won nine Saudi Pro League titles, the last in 2019.

 

"This is more than history in the making. This is a signing that will not only inspire our club to achieve even greater success but inspire our league, our nation and future generations, boys and girls to be the best version of themselves. Welcome @cristiano to your new home @alnassr_fc," tweeted the Saudis, who are currently second in the standings.
