Cristiano Ronaldo shows off ripped body in Instagram post of Al-Nassr medical as former Manchester United star arrives for unveiling at new club in Saudi Arabia


Cristiano Ronaldo has taken to Instagram to document his first day at new club Al-Nassr.

The footballing icon signed a £177-million-per-year deal with the Saudi Arabian outfit on Friday and has now arrived in the Middle East to complete his medical and be unveiled at his new club.

Al-Nassr posted a video of their new centre-forward arriving in the club’s city, Riyadh, showing Ronaldo stepping out of a private jet with his family in tow.

The ex-Manchester United star and his girlfriend, Georgina Rodríguez, were then greeted with flowers from a young fan in the club’s yellow and blue shirt with ‘Ronaldo’ on the back, before getting in a car to head to his medical.

Reposting the montage to his own Instagram story, the Portuguese icon wrote: “Hi Riyadh”

Next, the star uploaded a snap of him waving at fans as he drove to his new club.

“Thank you Riyadh for the warm welcome!” he wrote. “Look forward to seeing you at the stadium tonight.”

The five-time Ballon d’Or winner then posted a picture of him undergoing his medical, showing off his ripped physique and smiling at the camera whilst putting both his thumbs up.

“Medical done!” he wrote, alongside a strong arm emoji.

Al-Nassr are expected to hold a grand unveiling of their new big money signing at Mrsool Park on Tuesday.

The 37-year-old could make his return to the pitch on Thursday, January 5 when his new side face Al-Ta’ee at home, although there has been no official confirmation of his debut date.

Should Ronaldo not be deemed fit enough to feature versus Al Ta’ee, then his home debut will have to wait until January 21 against Ettifaq.

The Portugal star last played in his country’s World Cup 2022 quarter-final clash against Morocco.

The ex-Real Madrid centre-forward has been without a club since before Qatar 2022 began, after his Man United contract was terminated following his explosive interview with TalkTV.

Ronaldo looks raring to go in his latest Instagram posts.

Erik ten Hag admits he's taking 'risk' with Casemiro

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has admitted that while he is taking a 'risk' with the fitness of Casemiro, the same sentiment can be applied to the rest of his squad. The Brazilian has already racked up 2,051 minutes for the Red Devils this season either side of a gruelling World Cup campaign with Brazil. Casemiro has completed the full 90 minutes in 11 of United's last 13 Premier League matches and his only absence since joining the club came when he was suspended for their recent trip to Arsenal. Ten Hag, who  revealed  he is relishing a busy fixture schedule, said he is indeed taking a 'risk' with Casemiro's fitness but that is no different to his other key players. "[Casemiro] is important but in top football there's a risk and we know that," Ten Hag said. "We know players get injured and you can't avoid it. Of course, if you want to be successful in the season you need your key players on board and that's definitely the tr
