Looking back at the expensive villa worth up to $400M in the Saudi kingdom that Ronaldo and his wife were ready to leave behind

Cristiano Ronaldo has reserved a suite at the opulent Kingdom Tower, one of Saudi Arabia’s tallest and most imposing buildings, to start his trip there in style. When the former Manchester United attacker moves his family into a permanent home in the Middle East, he may have racked up a bill of £250,000, according to sources.

In November, after Manchester United terminated his contract, Ronaldo left European football and signed a two-and-a-half-year deal with Al-Nassr. The Portuguese icon is thought to have a fortune of more than £400 million, yet he didn’t think twice about buying his first house. Ronaldo is staying at the 99-story Kingdom Tower, which has the best vistas of Riyadh, according to the Mail.
