The 37-year-old five-time Ballon d’Or winner has become the highest-paid sportsperson ever after he signed a lucrative £173million-a-year deal with the Saudi Pro League club.
Ronaldo, who was released by Manchester United last month after his explosive interview with Piers Morgan, arrived in Riyadh on Monday and was greeted by a large group of adoring fans.
The forward then underwent his medical on Tuesday ahead of his official unveiling, which took place at Al-Nassr’s home stadium – Mrsool Park.
After enduring an awkward moment which led to journalists chanting his iconic “Siu” celebration, Ronaldo soon had his boots on for his new team for the first time.
Thousands had crammed into the club’s ground to see the Portuguese superstar join his team-mates for a public training session.
He was all-smiles as took part in the warm-up before taking part in some ball work with his colleagues.
Ronaldo, partner Rodriguez and their kids took a luxury private jet for the trip to the Middle East.
Taking to her Instagram page, Georgina posted some snaps which revealed the interior of the aircraft.

And she still appeared to be cloud nine earlier as she joined her man in Saudi for a first look around Al-Nassr’s facilities.
The 28-year-old was also spotted wearing a large diamond ring too – perhaps a treat from Ronaldo to celebrate his mega new contract.
Ronaldo had earlier revealed that he had “multiple” offers from clubs in Europe and across the world before joining Al-Nassr.
He said: “For me, this is a great opportunity in football and to change the mentality of the new generation.
“Nobody knew, but I can say now, I had many opportunities in Europe, many clubs, in Brazil, in Australia, the US, even in Portugal there were many clubs that tried to sign me.
“But I gave my word to this club, for the opportunity to develop not only the football but the other part of this amazing country.”
Ronaldo added: “For me it is a good challenge. I know what I want and, of course, what I don’t want as well.
“So for me, it is a good chance to change, help, with my experience and knowledge to grow many important points.
“Also, I want to give a different vision of the country, the football and the perspective of everybody and this is why I took this opportunity.”
Ronaldo is expected to Al-Nassr debut on January 14 in a derby against Al-Shabab.
