The main problem this day with "salaries" is they are not longer "salary" i mean they deal with a lot of other things in the contracts like publicity marketing and other things that we dont know so much about it.

For example in this new extension in the Cristiano Ronaldo contract it was some assets like the shares of the team, plus jets and travels.
A player like Cristiano Ronaldo is clearly bigger than the whole Al Nassr team, their management and even the owners. He doesn't have the same money as the sheiks but he has the notoriety, many people know Al Nassr because of him, not because of the wealthy owners. This could be a dangerous game for a club because they are becoming hostages of Ronaldo, Ronaldo became the club at this point. In Europe people support the teams, not the players, in Saudi Arabia and other parts of the world is the opposite.
