Cristiano Ronaldo, the £1bn footballer, has made his first move into club ownership by purchasing a 25% share in a Spanish second division side. The club is backed by Saudi investors, giving Ronaldo a new role in football beyond his playing career.
This investment follows Ronaldo's previous claims that he could 'fix' Man United, suggesting his interest in taking on leadership roles in football clubs. The Portuguese superstar continues to expand his influence in the sport beyond his playing achievements.
