Cristiano Ronaldo has taken time out from football and training to visit his new museum and waxwork in Riyadh.
The Portuguese forward, who already has his own museum in Madeira, moved to Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr last January and has helped the competition to grow as a host of top footballers followed him out there in the summer.
Ronaldo visited the CR7 Signature Museum and posed with his wax statue, which can be seen wearing a full Al-Nassr kit.
"This is My Story. From Madeira to Saudi Arabia my CR7 Signature Museum now open in Riyadh," the former Manchester United and Real Madrid attacker wrote on Instagram.
According to Time Out Riyadh, "the interactive museum is inspired by the Al Nassr player’s life story and career" and features some of his most important trophies along with personal memorabilia and even interactive game and areas.
