Superstar Ronaldo is causing a commotion wherever he goes and now that the leading striker has entered the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, he’s in no mood for games.
Ronaldo was seen being greeted and shown immense love by the people of KSA as he arrived with a bang after signing a mega contract with a private club owned by Saudis.
While the decision was controversial, to begin with, many couldn’t help but wonder what was next. And now, we’re hearing about Saudi Arabia bending its own laws to adjust Ronaldo into their country.
As many people are already aware, Ronaldo is yet to tie the knot with his long-term girlfriend who is also the mother of his children. And in the Kingdom, it’s against Islamic law and tradition for a man to live with a woman, without getting married.
In this case, it has been announced that Ronaldo would be allowed to live with his lover at the exclusive royal palace which is a part of his mega package deal.
Ronaldo was seen signing a huge $75 million contract with the club called Al Nassr of Saudi Arabia. There was a grand welcome celebration allotted to him after he arrived with his family by his side.
For many fans, seeing Ronaldo enter Saudi Arabia was a treat on its own and now that he will be playing for them, it’s going to be a real adventure altogether.
The 37-year-old striker was seen donning the famous Al Nassr shirt at the start of this week and that showed how happy and well-adjusted he was to the new country and club.
The news has attracted a massive crowd of people but that does not mean it doesn’t come with backlash.
Saudi citizens are bashing the government for going the extra mile and bending the historic tradition only for him, which they feel is an insult to their culture and heritage.
