Ronaldo’s new contract sets clause of possible transfer to Newcastle

Cristiano Ronaldo has a clause in his new Al Nassr contract allowing the record 5-time UEFA Champions League winner to play and defend his stellar records in Europe’s top-tier competition before the end of his career.

According to Marca, there is reportedly a clause that could see him join Newcastle United on loan if they qualify for the Champions League next season as the English side are owned by the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund.

The Magpies are in pole position to qualify for Europe’s top flight after a stellar run in the Premier League. Having lost only once all season, Newcastle currently sit in third position- 8 points behind the league leaders.
