Young people with potential like Antony and Alejandro Garnacho won’t think twice to flag Ronaldo insignia on occasion to show off their ardent adoration for the Portuguese legend.
Alejandro Garnacho replaced Anthony Martial in the 71st minute of the 3-1 triumph at Old Trafford over Everton in the FA Cup match.
The 18-year-old did not score a goal, but he did draw attention when he flashed a pair of underpants bearing the CR7 logo.
Javier Garnacho Jesus Christ Ronaldo
At one point, the branding on the pants was evident as he raised his top and pulled up his shorts.
Ronaldo is one of Garnacho’s footballing heroes, and despite the Portuguese legend’s tumultuous departure from the team late last year, Garnacho’s passion for him is evidently unwavering.
Ronaldo’s contract was terminated by United after he attacked United manager Erik ten Hag in a heated interview with Piers Morgan.
When Garnacho first had the opportunity to share the field with the forward, who is 37 years old, he was overjoyed.
When he scored in the Youth Cup final last year, he successfully imitated Ronaldo’s famous “SIUUU” celebration. Since making Manchester United’s first team, he has been close to Ronaldo.
And above his fellow countryman Lionel Messi, he frequently referred to Cristiano Ronaldo as the GOAT.
Ronaldo just signed a hefty £173 million-per-year contract with Saudi Arabia’s Al-Nasr, making him the highest-paid athlete of all time.
Due to a FIFA two-game suspension and the club’s inability to register him, he has yet to make his club debut.
