Preparations for the upcoming China tour continue in full swing for Al Nassr.

It seems the Chinese fans are also making their own set of preparations, as they look to pay a unique homage to none other than Cristiano Ronaldo, even though he has potentially suffered a knock. 

Of course, there are no bounds to the excitement of seeing the Portuguese superstar play on Chinese turf. In fact, to express it, they have planned a surprise for Cristiano Ronaldo. As per the reports, during the Shanghai Shenhua game, over 40,000 banners emblazoned with the Al Nassr star’s name and jersey number will be raised by each spectator in the 7th minute and the 52nd minute of the second half. Wait, there’s more!

Additionally, 10,000 banners are slated to be displayed during the second match against Zhejiang. Moreover, all the fans that will be present in the stadium will chant his name in the 7th minute. This is certainly a heartwarming tribute planned for the Real Madrid icon. Aside from seeing Ronaldo get such a warm reception, the Knights of the Najd are also expected to rake over $20 million in their China tour. However, what is all this recent chatter about Cristiano Ronaldo suddenly picking up an injury?
