Cristiano Ronaldo is raring to begin the next chapter of his illustrious career - this time in Saudi Arabia. The Portuguese talisman recently signed for Al-Nassr and has been itching to make his debut at the Saudi Pro League. However, due to a pending 2-match FA ban following the infamous Everton incident, the 37-year-old legendary striker must wait until Al-Nassr plays Ettifaq on January 22.

While fans await the five-time Ballon d'Or winner's high-profile debut - what's been impressing them is CR7's dedication towards his training and fitness.
