JUST IN: Ronaldo ‘agrees’ to £173m Saudi contract

 Former Manchester United star, Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly agreed a record-breaking £172.9million per year contract with Saudi Arabian club, Al Nassr.

According to Daily Mail UK, Ronaldo is said to have sensationally agreed to a two-and-a-half year deal with Al Nassr, worth a whooping £172.9million per year, that will see him play until the age of 40.

Ronaldo has been the talk of the news in the past weeks after his explosive interview with Piers Morgan hit the internet early in November.

The Portuguese star in the interview heavily criticised both Manchester United as a club and the manager Erik ten Hag, saying the club had not grown since Sir Alex Ferguson left in 2013 adding that he had no respect for Ten Hag cause the manager had no respect for him.

However, sources close to the five time Ballon d’Or winner insist that no deal has been signed and that Ronaldo remains focused on the World Cup with his country, but reports in Spain today by  Spanish newspaper outlet, Marca claim the figures have been agreed.

The 37-year-old had his contract with Manchester United terminated on mutual agreement on November 22 after the club thanked the Portuguese star for his contribution during the two spells which saw him score 145 goals in 346 appearances.

Ronaldo’s saga deepened as he was slapped with a fine of £50,000 and given a two-match ban by the football association in England, following an incident that occurred in April when Ronaldo smashed a fan’s phone at Goodison Park after Man United lost to Everton last season.

And now Ronaldo is said to have sensationally agreed a two-and-a-half year deal with Al-Nassr, who are one of the most successful clubs in Saudi Arabia, having being crowned winners of the country’s top flight nine times, with their most recent triumph coming in 2019.

Augustine Eguavoen Did A Fine Job As Super Eagles Coach

  By now it is no news to any Nigerian sports fan, that Augustin Eguavoen and his entire team have been relieved of their duties at the helm of affairs of the Nigerian National team. Most Nigerians are happy with this development, with some claiming that his immediate predecessor, Gernot Rohr would have delivered better results. However, a simple analysis of events will clearly demonstrate that Eguavoen did a fine enough job given the circumstances. I will attempt to undertake this analysis by demonstrating, first that Eguavoen has a better record than one might realize, and secondly by comparing the performance of his Super Eagles with that of Afcon winners, Senegal, and runners-up Egypt. When Gernot Rohr was sacked a few weeks to the Afcon, knowledgeable sportspersons decried the move, citing the difficulty any new coach would face in setting up the team to play to his own patterns. In analyzing Eguavoen, therefore, it must first be understood that the new boss was operating unde...

THE HISTORY OF CORPORATE IDENTITY

  THE HISTORY OF CORPORATE IDENTITY     In 1996, Graphic Design Legend Paul Rand declared “the greatest living graphic designer”—it was yet another ‘feather in the cap’ for him, and one of many during a long and colorful career that would make any present day designer envious. But more so when the acclamation comes from a visionary like Steve Jobs. In fact, it was Paul Rand’s dedication to treating design as a function of business that helped Steve Jobs’ Apple to become the design-leading powerhouse that it is today.   In 1986, Rand was hired to create a logo for Jobs, reportedly for a fee of $100,000. But long before that—back in the 1950s—he had already begun to pave the way for design systems, and the notion of corporate identity.   Many consider Rand to be the father of modern graphic design—the man who introduced the idea that commercial art could, and should, have both a strong visual appeal and an important functional role in the world of mo...
