The ‘Forever Worldwide: The Road to Saudi Arabia’ NFT collection, a collaboration between Cristiano Ronaldo and Binance, was unveiled today. The new NFTs offer fans novel experiences and spectacular real-life rewards, representing Cristiano Ronaldo’s journey from modest beginnings in Madeira to becoming a worldwide football legend.

The ‘Forever Worldwide: The Road to Saudi Arabia’ NFT collection delves further into the legendary locations that played a significant role in Ronaldo’s career, including Madeira, Lisbon, Manchester, Madrid, Turin, Saudi Arabia, and Portugal. Artists with links to the legendary venues in Cristiano’s career were hand-picked to create the collection, and they each contributed a one-of-a-kind design to an NFT.

Cristiano Ronaldo said:

“I’m excited that this new NFT collection with Binance offers fans pieces of my journey throughout my football story. 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.” 

Sarah Dale, Head of Brand Partnerships at Binance stated:

“Cristiano Ronaldo’s incredible journey from humble beginnings to football legend has not only inspired fans around the world but has brought all of us along that incredible ride. 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. Together, we’re committed to reshaping fan engagement in sports, and this collection does that by opening up new horizons of NFT utility and levels of fan-connections.”

Two drops of the new NFT collection will occur throughout the next football season, with an auction for a limited number of super super rare (SSR) NFTs taking place in June.

The Drop 1, including the historic locations of Madeira, Lisbon, and Manchester, will begin on May 29. Fans have the opportunity to own a vital piece of Cristiano Ronaldo’s history by purchasing vibrant artwork created by artists Katt Phatt (representing Madeira) and Rodrigo Doin (representing Lisbon), which reflects the location where Cristiano Ronaldo’s adventure started. Included in Drop 1 will be NFT artwork by John Sheehan, a Manchester artist who pays tribute to Cristiano Ronaldo’s ascent in Manchester.

On June 6th, Drop 2 will be available, with stunning artwork from Saudi Arabia, Madrid, and Turin. Artist Pasquale Garibaldi (Italy) will express his tenure in Turin, honoring his legacy in Serie A and Italian football, while Spanish artist Lisett Ledón will depict his historic triumphs with Madrid, capturing his passion for the Spanish League. Cristiano Ronaldo’s most recent chapter in Saudi Arabia is commemorated with an NFT designed by Saudi artist Shaker Kashgari.

There will be a unique limited-edition collection of seven super super rare NFTs available later in June. Designed by local artist Mr. Dheo, this limited edition of NFTs will be auctioned off online from June 14th to the 18th and pay tribute to Cristiano Ronaldo’s unfaltering devotion to his home nation.

Superfans who have gathered every NFT from the Drop 4 collection may enter a quiz starting on June 11th for an additional opportunity to win one of the special SSR NFTs. 

The collection includes a ‘Collect to Earn’ system for accessing NFT utilities, and it costs $35 (USD) across all locations except for the restricted SSR NFTs. Starting with the initial purchase of a Forever Worldwide NFT, collectors will have the opportunity to win rewards like as vintage jerseys, football tickets, autographed and downloadable posters, and a chance to submit questions that Cristiano will answer in a unique video for people who have the NFTs.

An unique experience with Cristiano Ronaldo—a journey to Riyadh, a football game ticket, and a customized goal celebration moment with Cristiano—will be given to holders of the SSR Portugal NFTs, reflecting the importance of Portugal to Cristiano. Collectors may seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity by participating in an auction that begins on June 14. The NFT will be awarded to the four highest bidders. This experience will also include people who have gathered all six previous NFT locations and won the SSR Portugal NFT in the quiz.

Beginning on May 29, 2024, the first drop of the NFT collection “Forever Worldwide: The Road to Saudi Arabia” will only be accessible via the Binance NFT Marketplace or by visiting Binance’s Forever Zone.
