With Ronaldo searching for a new club, there was a suggestion that he was close to agreeing to a £173m-per-year deal to join Saudi Arabia's Al-Nassr.
While Piers Morgan took to social media to dismiss the idea that the forward was set to join the Saudi Arabian club, a recent report claimed that Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal are battling for Ronaldo's services.
Despite the interest from Saudi Arabia, according to journalist Daniele Longo, the 37-year-old is excited by the prospect of joining Chelsea. Chelsea owner Todd Boehly reportedly wanted to sign Ronaldo in the summer, but Thomas Tuchel, who was the manager at the time, was against the idea of the Portugal international joining the club.
