Bookies give a variety of betting specials for Cristiano Ronaldo's Al Nassr move
Cristiano Ronaldo completed his move to Saudi club Al Nassr last week and bookies are giving a whole host of specials around the transfer.
Ronaldo will be hoping to show his critics that he's still got it in Saudi and all of the specials are around how many goals he scores at the club.
Paddy Power give odds of 6/4 for Ronaldo to score 20 or more goals in the 2022/23 season, which still has 18 games left to play.
| Cristiano Ronaldo Saudi Specials | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Ronaldo to score 1 or more Hat-Tricks in the 22/23 season | 1/2 | 66.7% |
| Ronaldo to score 20 or more goals in the 22/23 season | 6/4 | 40.0% |
| Ronaldo to score 3 or more Hat-Tricks in the 22/23 season
|
15/2 | 11.8% |
| Ronaldo to score 25 or more goals in the 22/23 season | 15/2 | 11.8% |
| Ronaldo to score 30 or more goals in the 22/23 season | 40/1 | 2.4% |
The Portuguese forward will be hoping to kick start his career all over again by showing the Saudi league just how good he is.
The last few months of Ronaldo's career have been surrounded by poor performances and controversial interviews that have been a negative on his footballing life.
Ronaldo is set to make his debut for the club on January 22
Ronaldo is set to make his Al Nassr debut on January 22 against Ettifaq according to his new manager Rudi Garcia.
Garcia said that Ronaldo "has not had easy moments" in recent months with United and in his personal life saying he hopes Ronaldo can find the enjoyment of playing football again.
The lucrative deal that Ronaldo signed until 2025 was reportedly worth £177m a year but he's had to miss the first two games of his move following a two match ban by the FA.
Ronaldo was given the ban after knocking a phone out of a fan's hand after Manchester United's loss to Everton back in April.
Ronaldo's first Saudi appearance though could be against Lionel Messi in a mixed Al Hilal and Al Nassr team
Lionel Messi and his Paris St-Germain side are set to play in friendly against an all-star XI featuring players from Saudi clubs Al-Hilal and Al Nassr.
Al Nassr's manager Rudi Garcia has told L'Equipe that Ronaldo will make his Saudi debut in that game before making his club debut the following week.
It would be somewhat poetic if Ronaldo was to make his debut in Saudi Arabia against his longtime rival Messi later this month.
