Portugal's soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo on Tuesday attended a White House meeting between US President Donald Trump and Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

Trump is hosting the Saudi leader as the latter seeks to deepen ties with Washington.

Ronaldo, who has scored over 950 goals for club and country, is contracted to play for the Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr until 2027, which is majority owned by the kingdom's Public Investment Fund.

Billionaire Elon Musk also attended the dinner at the White House.
