The ex-Manchester United player showed respect for the warm welcome he received in Saudi Arabia. Cristiano Ronaldo’s presentation at Al-Nassr Stadium was phenomenal, with a large crowd cheering and screaming his name following a laser and fireworks performance. The event’s photos emerged to be from a trophy honoring instead of a player introduction.

Ronaldo expressed in English, complimenting the standard of the Saudi league and stressing his goal to “make people happy“. He also hugged academy players, tossed balls into the crowd, and smiled for photos with his family.

The chant was “Ana Alamy,” which means “I’m global,” a reference to the squad’s moniker. Without question, all was an aspect of a well-thought-out branding strategy, albeit one that marginally failed, but the crowd was enthusiastic and appreciated it. Cristiano Ronaldo’s new adventure has gotten off to a strong start.
