The report says the group includes business figures and former Al Nassr president Ibrahim Al Muhaidib, while the club remains controlled by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund. Each investor could reportedly contribute at least US$100 million, although there is no confirmed agreement or defined ownership percentage.
For Ronaldo, such a move would represent a significant expansion of his Saudi football project. He joined Al Nassr as one of the sport’s biggest global names and has become central to the league’s international profile. A stake in the club would potentially give him a voice in its long-term direction, recruitment and commercial strategy.
Ronaldo’s public affection for Saudi Arabia has been clear. He has repeatedly spoken positively about life in the country and appears determined to remain involved there, even as questions grow over how much longer he will continue playing.
The report says Ronaldo has indicated that the 2026-27 season could “probably” be his last in football, while stopping short of confirming retirement. That timeline makes the reported investment especially intriguing: a transition from star player to influential stakeholder could already be taking shape.
The next storyline to watch is whether negotiations progress into a formal ownership announcement. Until then, Ronaldo’s future at Al Nassr remains a sporting commitment first - and a potentially transformative business relationship in waiting.
