Portugal legend Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly agreed to a record-breaking deal worth over $200m-a-year with Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia.

The development was made after the 37-year-old had his Manchester United contract terminated earlier this month, following a bombshell interview with Piers Morgan.

According to Spanish outlet Marca, the Portuguese star has agreed to sign a two-and-a-half-year deal with Al Nassr that will see him play until the age of 40.

However, Daily Mail citing its sources reported that no deal has been signed yet, as the former Real Madird and Juventus striker remains focused on the ongoing FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

The Portugal international was pushing for a move away from Old Trafford in the summer but did not go ahead with it as he was determined to play Champions League football.

The former Real Madrid star rejected a switch to Saudi last summer.
