The Portuguese striker is the highest paid in the world and now invests his money in Arabia
Cristiano Ronaldo is a specimen we are unlikely to see again in professional soccer. The Portuguese striker is perhaps the soccer player with the best work ethic in the history of this beautiful game, because despite the fact that he has won practically everything, his hunger to win and surpass himself seems not to diminish but quite the opposite and that is why, at almost 39 years of age, he is in excellent physical shape and, above all, he is still a lethal striker.
Cristiano decided to embark on a new adventure in Saudi Arabian soccer and signed for Al-Nassr at the beginning of 2023. Many said that his career was over for going to the Saudi league to earn millions, but what they did not foresee was that Ronaldo was going to change the soccer landscape and, after his arrival, other big stars have decided to go to that league as well, showing the influence of the Portuguese.
Players like Neymar, Karim Benzema and Roberto Firmino, decided to follow in Cristiano’s footsteps and moved to the Saudi Pro League. However, the Portuguese has proven to be a crack on and off the pitch, because in addition to being the highest paid soccer player in the world, he is a very successful businessman who has his own clothing line and is now about to start a new business with his partner, Georgina Rodriguez.
It is a luxury hotel business on the west coast of Saudi Arabia. The latest update of those construction sites and the vision starting to take shape was uploaded by Rodriguez on her Instagram story, in which she tagged Cristiano Ronaldo and wrote: “Building the new paradise.”
While CR7 will have a hotel, Neymar sells perfume
While Cristiano Ronaldo is undertaking his new business with the hotel he is building with his partner, Neymar is also still making millions in Arabia. The Brazilian, who belongs to Al-Hilal, has just partnered with the Ibraheem Al Qurashi brand, with which he launched a Brazilian Tobacco perfume.
Level up your game!
My collab with @ibrahimqshops on Brazilian Tobacco is Unexpectedly amazing!.
