C. Ronaldo, his girlfriend and children had a grand debut in front of Al Nassr fans on the evening of January 3.

Meanwhile, CR7 and Georgina are not married but have lived together for more than 5 years.
According to British and Spanish media, the star couple is still allowed to live together in Saudi Arabia because they are foreigners and because of C. Ronaldo’s famous reputation. Some newspapers consulted lawyers and showed that the striker born in 1985 and Georgina will not get into trouble despite violating marriage laws in Saudi Arabia.

A foreign player must leave to make room for Ronaldo, by selling or both sides. Agree to terminate the contract”.
