Score a Bonus with CR7!
Looks like football fun-baton CR7, Cristiano Ronaldo, could be diving headfirst into football club ownership! Rumor has it, he's eyeing a spot as a co-owner of Spanish Second Division club, Almería. According to Marca, this potential move will see Ronaldo teaming up with Saudi investment company SMC Group, which has already set its footballing sights on Almería.
Now, isn't that the kicker? Ronaldo shares a friendly relationship with SMC Group's owner, Mohammed Al-Hereiji. And let's not forget that ol' Al-Hereiji played a significant role in the legendary footballer's transfer to Al-Nassr in 2023, so this partnership seems to be more than just a friendly pass!
Ronaldo's share purchase with SMC Group seems all but signed and sealed. But don't get too excited just yet! While CR7 has expressed no desire to manage a club anytime soon, he's certainly got his own game on the go.
Meanwhile, Almería is putting on quite the show, fighting tooth and nail for that much-coveted spot in La Liga, currently sitting pretty in 6th place in the Segunda division table with only three games left in the championship. The club's investment appeal, you ask? Mainly depends on its tournament results!

- With his new partnership with SMC Group, Cristiano Ronaldo could potentially influence the performance of Almería in European leagues, specifically Spanish football's Laliga, as they strive for promotion.
- As bookmakers anticipate the impact of CR7's co-ownership on Almería's future, they might consider revising the odds for Laliga based on his involvement and the club's current sports performance.
