Cristiano Ronaldo says his work in Europe is done as he was unveiled in front of over 90,000 Al Nassr fans on Tuesday.
The 37 year-old global icon also revealed he had turned down “many opportunities” from other clubs before joining Saudi Arabian side Al Nassr.
He joined Al Nassr as a free agent on Friday after leaving Manchester United following a controversial interview in which he criticised the club.
The Portugal captain said he had offers from clubs in Brazil, Australia, the United States and Portugal.

Ronaldo is reportedly set to receive the biggest football salary in history at more than £177m per year in a deal that runs until 2025.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner was greeted with applause and shouts of his trademark ‘Siu’ celebration as he spoke. He answered questions from a club official but took none from reporters.
