Rumors about Ronaldo's contract extension at Al Nasr have been a hot topic. It's undeniable that Ronaldo's conditions for a contract extension are very expensive. That's why it's been widely discussed. However, Ronaldo has now agreed to extend his contract with Al Nasr for two seasons. This means Ronaldo will play in the Saudi Arabian League until 2027. So, when the World Cup begins next year, Ronaldo will still be wearing an Al Nasr uniform.
It is not a rumor, Ronaldo officially got a contract extension for 2 years. It means he will stay in Al Nassr until June 2027. Sure, he will get a higher salary on the new deal of his contract with Al Nassr. Even if he still can't lead Al Nassr winning SPL trophy, I think he deserves it. Ronaldo has contributed much for Al Nassr and Saudi league. Ronaldo factor makes Saudi league and Al Nassr become more popular nowadays.

Besides, I personally don't have a problem with the money Al Nasr is spending on Ronaldo. Ronaldo is a valuable asset to Al Nasr and the Saudi Arabian League. If Al Nasr doesn't renew Ronaldo's contract and Ronaldo ultimately leaves the Saudi Arabian League, this will undoubtedly lead to a decline in the Saudi Arabian League's viewership ratings. It's undeniable that Ronaldo is the main player who made the Saudi Arabian League as popular as it is today. So, if the Saudi Arabian League still wants to carry out its plan to make the Saudi Arabian League known worldwide, they must keep Ronaldo, even if it means spending a lot of money.
I think Al Nassr knows well what they are doing. Even if they spend a lot of money, Ronaldo really brings big impacts. It is not only for Al Nassr, but it is also for the Saudi league. Those popular players want to join Saudi league because of Ronaldo factor, too. Saudi league and Al Nassr also become popular around the world. So, it makes sense if Al Nassr wants to extend his contract for another years. The only thing that Ronaldo still doesn't give to Al Nassr is SPL trophy. I think Ronaldo can do it if Al Nassr rebuilds the squad with more quality defenders and midfielders.
