Entering club management Marca: Ronaldo will invest in Saudi investment group and acquire Almeria

May 17 According to the exclusive report of the Spanish media "Marca", Ronaldo may be involved in the field of club management. Ronaldo is expected to join the investment group as a shareholder after Saudi SMC Group acquires Almeria Club.

Marca said that it is worth noting that SMC Group Chairman Mohamed Algerge has a close relationship with Ronaldo, which was the key operation that facilitated Ronaldo's transfer from Real Madrid to the Saudi professional league in December 2022.

Ronaldo is gradually building his own business and investment empire outside football, covering the fields of hotels, fashion, technology and health: holding shares in URSU mineral water brand; operating a healthy life application ERAKULIS; creating an athlete recovery product line Avathletes; launching a CR7 underwear series and CR7 perfume series; and even expanding to the shoe market to launch CR7 Footwear. The latest trends show that he may further expand his business territory by investing in SMC Group, which has just acquired Almeria Club.

The core information is that with deep friendship with Almeria's new owner, Ronaldo may purchase shares of the investment group. The group's business covers the media, advertising and sports fields, and may have more connections with the Almeria Club in the future. The group's Saudi Media Corporation (SMC) currently operates the Saudi Broadcasting Bureau's advertising resources and has the management rights of important stadiums, namely the home court of Riyadh where Ronaldo plays, which will host the 2034 World Cup.

According to Marca, the current management and coach of Almeria Club will continue to remain. It is worth noting that Ruby and his coaching team contract will last until 2027, and the club still has the hope of upgrading through the playoffs.

Mohamed Alghereji, one of the most influential figures in Saudi Arabia, is currently the head of the Riyadh Chamber of Commerce and Industry Committee and also serves as the chairman of the MBC Media Solutions Board. Recently, he was also appointed as the director of the Saudi Boxing Federation and is in charge of Saudi Arabia's largest outdoor advertising company Al Arabia OHH.
