Cristiano Ronaldo has been in the spotlight of the news, not because of his actions on the pitch, but because he has been talked regarding, because of his actions off the pitch. Recent incidents have him in their sights, as he has declared himself in absentia with Manchester United, announcing his desire to leave the club, which might happen in the coming days.
In the previous season, the Portuguese player was involved in an incident, destroying a fan’s cell phone, following the match between Everton and Manchester United. The fact was recorded by the cameras of the fans, which later became viral.
According to information from the British newspaper, Daily Mail, the Merseyside police was sanctioned for the unfortunate incident. He was charged with assault and criminal damage. The young man affected was Jake Harding, to whom he damaged his cell phone, receiving a conditional reprimand, following agreeing to pay compensation.
This was the police record, following the incident “As the players left the field at 2:30 p.m., it was reported that a child was assaulted by one of the visiting team members as he left the field.”
Given this, Ronaldo manifested himself at the time, excusing himself for the action and inviting the young man to a match with him.
