<p> On July 26, Cristiano Ronaldo, 38, appeared before a crowd of people at a luxury hotel in Umeda, Osaka Prefecture. Cristiano Ronaldo, 38, was in Japan for a tour of the Saudi Professional League club Al Nasr FC, which he joined this year.</p>
<p><strong> In &#8217;20, he became the first football player in history to reach a lifetime income of $1 billion (about 110 billion yen at that time) and was ranked fourth in the world celebrity list that year. His contract with Al Nasr is for two and a half years until the end of June &#8217;25, for a total of 200 million euros (about 30.4 billion yen, rate as of July 28, 2012).</strong></p>
<p><strong> Since this amount includes a commercial contract fee, it is not expensive, and at 38 years of age, he shows no signs of decline, so I think he will work hard to make up for the annual salary.</strong></p>

<p> On the 25th, Ronaldo started in a friendly match against Neymar&#8217;s Paris Saint-Germain. Although he did not score, he showed off his dribbling technique and overhead kicks.</p>
<p> On the 26th, Ronaldo held an open practice session at Panasonic Stadium Suita (Osaka Prefecture), and the fans in attendance cheered as he smiled and moved his body happily, despite the intense heat. When Ronaldo returned to the hotel after the practice, he got off the bus and was greeted with loud cheers of &#8220;Ronaldo! and the fans cheered loudly. He responded to their cheers by waving to them with his card key in his mouth.</p>

<p> In June of this year, he participated in an event for a bottled water business in Madrid, Spain. There, he told reporters,</p>
<p><strong> I thought about it a few years ago. I would probably like to become a (soccer) club owner. So I have a maximum of two or three years until my career closes.</strong></p>
<p> Ronaldo expressed his views on his future. That means that there is no denying that Al Nasr could be his last team. We can only hope that he will be able to play on the pitch in Japan one more time while he is still active.</p>

 A large crowd gathered in front of the hotel where Cristiano Ronaldo was staying to catch a glimpse of him during his visit to Japan for his Japan tour. After the open training session, Ronaldo came back to the hotel with a card key in his mouth.

Even the sight of him sucking on a card key is “so cool! Cristiano Ronaldo, whose annual salary is 30 billion yen, comes to Japan with fever.
