Cristiano Ronaldo is on the verge of inking a whopping $212Mln per year contract with Al-Nassr, and the deal could be wrapped up in the next 24 hours, Spanish outlet Marca reported on Thursday. CR7 is currently searching for a new employer after his departure from Old Trafford which came hot on the heels of his bombshell interview with British broadcaster Piers Morgan, where he hit out at the club's top management, including manager Erik ten Hag. Although the five-time Ballon d'Or winner has made every possible attempt to remain in Europe, his offers have been rejected on several occasions, with the latest snubs coming from former Premier League champions Chelsea and more recently, from Germany's Eintracht Frankfurt. At the moment, it appears that he has been left with no other option than Al-Nassr, an outfit which is extremely keen to bring him to the Kingdom.
