    Ronaldo seems totally at ease even though he’s waiting to see if any European giants come in for him as he weighs up a reported £173MILLION offer from Al Nassr.
    The Saudi Arabian side want the ousted Manchester United striker despite his disappointing World Cup with Portugal.
    And although it’s thought Ron would prefer to stay in Europe, he’s been enjoying himself with selfies in the past 24 hours.
    Earlier, he shared spa pictures with his 520million Instagram followers.

    And so far the Saudi proposition is the only one confirmed.
    Al Nassr want him until June 2025 – that’s four months after his 40th birthday.
    And whatever the doubts over moving to Saudi Arabia, if you are going to prepare for a mid-life crisis he might think there are worse ways to do it than with a £173m boost in the bank. More

    The Turkish cook and Instagram star – real name Nusret Gökçe – posted a short clip of an outside table at his Dubai steakhouse.
    Two seats are pulled up, but it is laid with only one plate and one set of cutlery – and a brass “reserved” sign.
    Also on the table are a bunch of flowers, a lit candle and a garish painting of Salt Bae with soccer legend Maradona, who died in 2020.
    More on Salt Bae
    He captioned the video: “Forever reserve.”
    The painting appears to be based on a photo as the Argentina icon is wearing the same outfit as when he visited the restaurant in 2018.
    Salt Bae’s mawkish tribute came despite Maradona hilariously mocking the chef’s “sprinkle” gimmick to his face.
    Video from the time shows the star’s reaction after being invited to mimic Gökçe’s trademark salt gesture.
    Most read in Football
    Instead he takes a pinch of salt and disdainfully dabs in the air with his fingers right under the chef’s nose.
    Earlier this week Salt Bae shared an old video of him hugging Lionel Messi after being trolled over the footballer’s snub on the pitch.
    Messi and his wife visited the same Dubai steakhouse in 2018.
    France ace Paul Pogba was also there and the chef made sure he got in between the two footballers for a photo.
    Gökçe’s throwback video shows him shaking Messi’s hand and giving him a bear hug, then talking animatedly while wagging his finger at the Barcelona forward.
    His self-promoting video was captioned simply: “The champion”.
    Followers said it was “cringe” and accused him of a desperate attempt to prove he is pals with Messi after getting the cold shoulder days earlier.
    After the world cup final, Gökçe was filmed grabbing the Argentina captain by the shoulder at least twice.
    Messi tried to shrug him off before finally agreeing to pose for an awkward picture.
    The fame-hungry chef was shot down by his own fans for his desperate attempts to get close to the footballing star.
    One said: “This is embarrassing.”
    Another said: “He wanna prove that he wasn’t ghosted by Messi.”
    As well as badgering Messi, he was filmed muscling in on the Argentina squad’s celebrations and snatching the trophy from one winner’s baby.
    Gökçe also pretended to do his trademark salt-sprinkling trick over the £17million gold trophy as irritated players stood by.
    And boastful pics on his Insta page showed his kissing the trophy and holding it aloft like a champion.
    The disgraceful spectacle reportedly broke Fifa’s rules, which say only former winners and heads of state can handle it.
    BBC host Gary Lineker shared footage of his attention-seeking antics, saying: “He’s such a pest.”
    And former FA chairman Greg Dyke said: “I don’t think Fifa and Infantino have come out of this very well.”
    Fifa has reportedly refused to say if Salt Bae was granted access to the pitch.

    “It’s literally my birthday two days before the fight as well so I’m gonna have a sober a** New Years, Christmas and birthday, but it’s all worth it.”

    In a video posted on Instagram, two lucky men are seen painting mini Argentina national flags over the women’s areola.
    The fine craftsmanship made sure their nipples were perfectly positioned in line with the Sol De Mayo, accentuating the symbol in cooler conditions.
    The women involved have now become household names after they were spotted live on TV stripping off to celebrate Argentina’s dramatic win over France.
    The footage of Noemi Gomez – known as Noe Dreams – and Milu Barbiie’s brazen stunt in Qatar was soon shared on social media and went viral.

    Noe shared more topless clips from Sunday’s celebrations – and even appeared to post a picture of her boarding a plane out of the country.
