Ronaldo had a chance to become the highest-paid footballer in history but alas that was not to be as he has reportedly turned down the Saudi club’s staggering offer. He was reportedly offered to the tune of $277 million for a two-year contract by an unnamed Saudi club.

This in addition to the agent and transfer fee would push the sum to over $300 million.

However, it appears that not many teams are contending for the 37-year-old, with even Chelsea, where many had predicted Ronaldo would transfer, pulling out most recently.
