Superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has pulled off a coup in the business world of football!
As CR7 himself confirmed on Thursday morning, he has secured 25 percent of the club shares of UD Almería.
The Andalusians are currently competing in the second Spanish league, but as third in the table, they are having a strong season and have good chances of promotion. Very soon, Ronaldo could therefore become a part-owner in a top-five league.
The 41-year-old also announced that the transaction was handled through “CR7 Sports Investments,” a new subsidiary of the company “CR7 SA.”
“For a long time, I have wanted to contribute to football beyond the pitch. UD Almería is a Spanish club with a strong foundation and clear growth potential. I want to work with the leadership team to support the club in its new phase of growth,” the Portuguese star explained in his statement.
However, it is not known how much his latest investment has cost him.
