A deal has been made for Cristiano Ronaldo and Aymeric Laporte to join Al-Nassr. Laporte will receive a 20 million euro annual salary with a contract that runs through June 2026 for the sum of 30 million euros.

Many European stars have moved to Saudi clubs this summer and the Man City defender will be the next to play in the Middle East.

According to Daily Mail journalist Jack Gaughan, the Spain international will fly to Saudi Arabia on Monday to complete his move to Al-Nassr and become a teammate of Cristiano Ronaldo.

Laporte won 5 Premier League titles with Man City. The 29-year-old made 180 appearances for the English side after joining from Athletic Bilbao for 65 million euros in 2018.

Laporte was once an important link in Pep Guardiola’s defense but is now only fifth choice behind John Stones, Ruben Dias, Manuel Akanji and Nathan Ake at centre-back. The fact that the Green Man has just recruited Josko Gvardiol for 90 million euros from RB Leipzig makes his playing opportunities even less and as a result, Laporte has decided to join Al-Nassr.
