The deal is understood to be one of the most lucrative in sports history and could see the five-time Ballon d'Or winner net close to €200 million (£173m) per season.

Reports suggest that the initial deal will be worth close to €100m (£86m) but will be incentivized by further agreements such as advertisement and sponsorship deals.

Al-Nassr are one of the most successful clubs in Saudi Arabia, having being crowned winners of the country's top flight nine times, with their most recent triumph coming in 2019.
