Additionally, he and his Saudi team arrived in Tehran to play Iranian club Persepolis in the first home-and-away club tie since the restoration of diplomatic relations between Iran and Saudi Arabia. Furthermore, a US appeals court rejected an appeal by Kathryn Mayorga's lawyer in the case against Ronaldo, upholding the dismissal of the civil lawsuit and a $335,000 fine against her lawyer.
