The limelight ever since the middle east league is getting following the arrival of Ronaldo is massive and if reports are to be believed it is more than even some of the top Premier League sides.
Ronaldo signed for the middle-east side on New Year’s Eve after Manchester United terminated his contract. He signed a two and half year contract and reportedly is on a €200 million per year deal which makes him the highest-paid player in the history of the game. His signing has been seen as a monumental coup for Al-Nassr making the team one of the most popular clubs on social media.
According to data from DeporFinanzas, Al Nassr are reportedly among the top four clubs yielding the most interactions across social media platforms in January. The Riyadh-based side reportedly have generated 150 million total social media interactions in the month of January.

Among the social media, Twitter has generated the most interactions for Al Nassr with 12.5 million interactions, ranking third behind only Barcelona and Galatasaray. On TikTok Al Nassr also have managed 166 million views while on Instagram they are fifth in terms of followers.
All these numbers clearly show the impact Ronaldo is making with his involvement and it could impact the whole nation as well. Saudi Arabia are apparently ready to push their bid as a World Cup host for 2030 and they could expect the influence extends to reach their desired goal.
Ronaldo however has been prolific with his on-field activity as well. With eight goals and two assists in six games for his new club, the 38-year-old is helping the side put a title challenge sitting at the top with two points lead.
