The fever rises in Al-Nassr.
The Saudi Arabian club is preparing to welcome this Tuesday Cristiano Ronaldo, its new recruit, who signed for two and a half years and more than 200 million euros per year.
The Portuguese superstar will be presented from 5 p.m. French time at King Saud University Stadium, also known as Mrsool Park, the stadium of Al-Nassr.
