The launch of Forever Worldwide: The Road to Saudi Arabia will have a profound impact on the Binance ecosystem.
A well-decorated Portuguese professional footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, who currently plays as a forward for the Saudi Arabia-based Al Nassr, has announced the official launch of a new limited edition non-fungible tokens (NTFs) in partnership with Binance Holdings Ltd., on Wednesday, May 29.
According to the announcement, the latest Ronaldo’s NFT collection on Binance is titled Forever Worldwide: The Road to Saudi Arabia.
The legendary footballer indicated that the latest NFT collection will represent his football life from Madeira to a professional icon.
Additionally, the latest NFT collection will enable the fans to access a wide range of perks including vintage football shirts, match tickets, and a chance to meet with Ronaldo physically. “Each place in ‘Forever Worldwide: The Road to Saudi Arabia’ means a lot to me personally and I can’t wait for fans to see my career’s big moments through this special artwork collection. Working with artists who really capture the feeling from each place makes this experience even more sentimental, and as NFTs, these moments in my journey can live on forever,” Ronaldo noted.

The last phase on June 14 will encompass 7 super super rare NFTs for Portugal, which will be dedicated to his national team. Apart from the SSR units, all the other NFTs will be priced at $35 per unit.
“To encapsulate this journey, we’ve worked with him to create our most remarkable NFT collection to date with the very best rewards ever offered for sports fans, while giving a platform to incredible talent with personal ties to iconic locations throughout Cristiano’s life.

Market Picture
The launch of Forever Worldwide: The Road to Saudi Arabia will have a profound impact on the Binance ecosystem, and especially on BNB. Already, Binance has cleared several regulatory hurdles in major jurisdictions led by the United States.
However, Ronaldo is yet to fully clear his name after a legal lawsuit filed last year indicated that he promoted unregistered securities, which led to financial losses.
