Cristiano Ronaldo, Portuguese Football Star, is talking about the possibility of purchasing a share at the Almeria Football Club, which performs in the Spanish Laiga. About it reports the Spanish edition of Marca .
According to sources, Ronaldo considers the option of cooperation with the SMC Group investment company, which is currently owned by Almeria. The chairman of the company is Saudi businessman Mohammed Alhereji, who played an important role in the transition of Ronaldo to the Saudi club "An-Passer" in 2023. A close business and personal relationships are stored between the football player and the al-chereaji.
It is reported that Ronaldo is interested in developing his presence in European football not only as a player, but also as an investor. The club's co-ownership in Spain may become part of its broader business development strategy after completing a professional career.
"A club with such potential as 'Almeria' is an attractive asset for an investor with a football vision," experts say. Against the background of the fact that Ronaldo already has numerous business interests-from fitness to the hotel business-entrance to the club management looks logical the next step.
At the moment, there is no official statement from the football player or SMC Group. However, the sources indicate that the negotiations are in the previous stage and the final decision has not yet been made.
If the agreement takes place, Ronaldo will become another top football player who, after his active career, joined the management of football clubs.
