Ronaldo said in a press conference upon his presentation as a player at the club: "I hope to participate in the Thursday match, but the decision is in the hands of coach Rui Garcia." On the other hand, Ahmed Al-Shaikhi, an expert on rules and regulations in Saudi Arabia, said that there are four things that must be resolved before Ronaldo can play against Al-Tai in the 12th round of the Saudi Professional League for the 2022-2023 season.
Al-Shaikhi wrote on Twitter: "First, it is necessary to receive all of Brazilian player Júlio César's entitlements and lift FIFA's penalty for the ban, second, the issuance of a financial competence certificate by the Ministry of Sports for Al-Nassr, third, Ronaldo's international card must be free of the disciplinary penalty imposed in England, and fourth, the completion of the Professional Committee's administrative procedures for his registration.
" The Spanish newspaper "AS" reported that Ronaldo will receive 175 million euros in the first season, or around 440 million euros, while he will sign another long-term contract as an ambassador for Saudi Arabia, accompanied by Egypt and Greece, to host the 2030 World Cup finals. Ronaldo terminated his contract with Manchester United and became a free agent in August 2018.
