On February 5, the 39-year-old striker used a rare day off to spend with family and friends in Saudi Arabia.

“Thank you, everyone, for your birthday wishes. It’s so happy to be with family and friends,” Cristiano Ronaldo thanked his fans through his personal page

In addition to girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez and son Ronaldo Junior, Ronaldo’s birthday party was attended by close friends such as Ricardo Refuge and Fabio Ferreira

Refuge (third from right) is the person who directly negotiated to bring Ronaldo a record salary of nearly 200 million euros per year in Saudi Arabia. Before that, Ronaldo gave full decision-making authority to another friend, Jorge Mendes.

In addition to wishes from fans and relatives, Ronaldo also received messages from his former clubs, including Real Madrid, Juventus, Sporting, and Manchester United, to celebrate his 38th birthday.

CR7 showed fans a special gift from Sporting. Before Ronaldo went to Saudi Arabia, his home club, Jose Alvalade, wanted to sign a contract with the player born in 1985 but did not have enough finances.
