Cristiano Ronaldo and Al Nassr are making waves in Austria — quite literally. While on pre-season training camp in Saalfelden, the Portuguese superstar caused a stir by forcing Hannover 96 to vacate their main training pitch.
To ensure optimal conditions for CR7 and his Saudi club, the German second-division side had to relocate their training sessions to a local sports school. No hard feelings from Hannover, though. Their coach, Christian Titz, said the new facilities were “excellent”.
€548,000 a day
But it’s not just about grass and goals. Ronaldo is surrounded by a full-blown security operation. According to Onside, the agency in charge of Al Nassr’s camp, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner is protected by 16 bodyguards. His influence at the club is growing stronger with the arrival of Jorge Jesus as head coach — a move reportedly pushed by Ronaldo himself. “Without Cristiano, I wouldn’t be here,” Jesus admitted.
Adding to his already massive influence, Ronaldo recently signed the most lucrative contract in football history, estimated at €548,000 per day. Now, after conquering Europe, he has one clear mission: win the Saudi Pro League — a title that has eluded him since joining Al Nassr in 2023.
