Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, the Saudi Al-nassr striker, opened his own museum in the Saudi capital of Riyadh today, showcasing a collection of memories of his most outstanding moments and prizes over his career.
The President of Saudi Arabia’s General Entertainment Authority, Turki Al-Sheikh, announced last September that during the “Riyadh Season” festival, the museum for the Portuguese star would be opened in the Boulevard City area and had been opened to the public last Wednesday.
The museum features all the individual awards that the player has won throughout his sporting career, as well as copies of the most important awards he has achieved with the Portuguese national football team and with the teams he has played with.
At the entrance to the museum is a statue of the Portuguese star wearing a Team Al-nassr shirt, with which the Portuguese player took some photos.
A video posted by Turki Al-Sheikh via his account on “ex-Twitter” showed Ronaldo touring the museum with his brother Ojo Aveiro to inspect his most prominent holdings.
