Following his move to Al Nassr, CRISTIANO RONALDO reportedly hired a new "personal manager."
Jorge Mendes, a well-known agent, has been the 37-year-representative old's for nearly 20 years.
However, it has been asserted that their relationship has "deteriorated" over the last 18 months.
Ricardo Regufe, Ronaldo's new manager, will represent him going forward and will receive £26 million in commission from the Al Nassr move, according to Portuguese publication A Bola.
When the former Real Madrid player signed a contract with a sporting goods company, Ronaldo first met Regufe.
And now it seems like the manager has struck gold, as Ronaldo reportedly chose him to be his representative for the Saudi Arabian project.
Before CR7's return to Manchester United in 2021, Mendes is understood to have suggested a move to the Middle East.
Relationship between Ronaldo and Mendes allegedly started to deteriorate when Ronaldo decided to return to Old Trafford.
Ronaldo is the highest-paid athlete in the world thanks to his absurd £175 million contract with Al Nassr.
He arrived in Saudi Arabia on Monday in order to begin a 2.5-year contract with the team.
Tuesday at 4 PM BST, the former Manchester United player will be introduced.
At the team's 25,000-seat Mrsool Park stadium in Riyadh, he will make his public entrance during an open training session where he will meet manager Rudi Garcia.
It's been gathered that Ronaldo won't likely play for the club, though, until their January 14 trip to Al-Shabab.
