Saudi Arabia are having a huge impact on the sporting world at present having invested heavily across the board. This event could be another huge one for the Middle Eastern country and a deal with Ronaldo shouldn’t be too hard to get done.
It will be interesting to see if any other superstars will be approached with the likes of Neymar and Karim Benzema also playing in the country.
