Portuguese striker Cristiano Ronaldo has bid farewell to England after his second stint in the Premier League as his massive fleet of cars was reportedly shipped to Portugal’s capital Lisbon. British newspaper the Sun shared pictures of Ronaldo’s cars, which were in the back of truck 1500 miles away from his house in Chesire.
This trailer full of cars also included a special Bentley Flying Spur, which was a gift from his partner, Georgina Rodriguez. The £300,000 car was then parked in his garage in Lisbon along with other vehicles like his £150,000 Cadillac Escalade. Reports say that the cars shipped from England could be worth over £500,000.
A bystander in Lisbon talked about the incident to the Sun and stated how the person delivering the cars was trying to be discrete but created a traffic jam behind it. The eye-witness, quoted by the Sun, said, “The delivery driver tried to unload them with as little fuss as possible, but the lorry blocked the road and that created a bit of a traffic backlog.
“Then the Escalade and the Bentley rolled out of the back and they are very eye-catching. They tried to get them into the garage as quickly as possible, but the cars still had British plates so it was pretty easy to work out they belong to Ronaldo.”
Going back to Cristiano Ronaldo in the Premier League, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner was released by Manchester United after his explosive interview with British media personality Piers Morgan. In the interview, Ronaldo slammed his club’s management and stated that he doesn’t respect the new manager Erik Ten Hag.
After Ronaldo’s exit, reports say that CR7 was offered the chance to become the highest-paid sportsperson of all time by the Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr. As per Spanish news outlet Marca, Al-Nassar had offered to pay a sum of 173 million a year.
