According to CBS Sports, the Portugal star will earn a whopping €70 million per year.
Ronaldo has publicly stated that he wants to play until he is 40 and with a contract like that there’s no reason why he can’t.
However, he will open himself up to criticism with the move, many people will now point to the fact that he can’t compete at the top level anymore.
The club is expected to officially announce the signing after their next game on Saturday.
