Reports had suggested that Saudi Arabian side Al Nassr had agreed a £173million deal to sign Ronaldo after the World Cup, something that the player himself denied.

But according to journalist Fabrizio Romano, the interest from Al Nassr remains valid, with the forward waiting for offers from from Europe.

He wrote on Twitter: "Cristiano Ronaldo has not made any decision on his future — nothing will be signed before the end of World Cup.

"Al Nassr bid remains valid: €200m per year until 2025. But nothing has been agreed, as reported last week.

"Cristiano, waiting for European clubs to move."

Ronaldo even addressed reports that he had agreed to move to Saudi Arabia following the World Cup's conclusion.

"No, it's not true," he insisted when quizzed by reporters over the claims.
