Fans hilariously stormed the pitch and hit the 'Siu' to celebrate Cristiano Ronaldo's mega move to Al Nassr during a league match in Saudi Arabia.

Ronaldo has signed an enormous deal with the Saudi outfit following the termination of his Manchester United contract.

The money-spinning transfer is set to earn the 37-year-old a whopping £177 million-per-year, having penned a two-year deal.

But Ronaldo has been banned from starring for his new team as he's yet to serve a two-game ban whilst at Man United.

However, before even turning out for Al Nassr, he's had a huge impact on Saudi football. That's judging by supporters at the Al Ittihad vs. Al Hilal game.

Fans stormed the pitch and performed Ronaldo's trademark celebration. A video shows two people entering the field of play and delivering the 'Siu' as the game came to a temporary halt.

It's not the first time his iconic catchphrase has been imitated since his transfer.

During his Al Nassr unveiling, several members of the media in attendance at the Mrsool Park shouted 'Siu' at the superstar forward.

He cut a sheepish figure and raised an eyebrow while cracking a smile after hearing his celebration echo around the room.

On his move, Ronaldo said he was 'proud' to make the decision to play for Al Nassr.

"I'm so proud to make this decision in my life and football. For me it’s a new challenge I’m glad Al Nassr gave me this new opportunity," he said during his unveiling.

"The welcome yesterday was amazing for me and my family and I’m already proud. When I take my decisions, my family always support me, especially my kids.

"I want to change the mentality of the new generation. I am so proud at making this big decision in my life and my career. My work in Europe is done. I played for all the most important clubs."
