Cristiano Ronaldo Pranked by Friend at Nike Boot Launch

Published on: 07 November 2016

Real Madrid superstar Cristiano Ronaldo leads a busy life.


The 31-year-old played all ninety minutes of his side's 3-0 win over Leganes on Sunday, during which Gareth Bale bagged a brace and Alvaro Morata grabbed a late strike. The Portugal captainalso signed a new contract with the La Liga giants to keep him at the Bernabeu until June 2021.


Ronaldo has also been busy promoting his new Nike boots, but was unexpectedly the victim of a prank by his long time friend Ricky Regufe.

You were behind this too!!?? Can't believe you guys did this behind my back!!! 😂😂👌���� @07RQuaresma pic.twitter.com/iqf28Yrg92

Regufe was the man responsible for signing Ronaldo to Nike, and has helped oversee parts of the Portuguese's footballing empire and business venturesover the past decade.


Ronaldo was evidently caught unaware by the prank, and international teammate Ricardo Quaresma was pleased to see his mate so frightened, having been the victim of a Ronaldo joke in the past.

Remember last year? I Never forgot about this! Consider us even now. 😂😂😂@Cristiano pic.twitter.com/rgofTKg44n

The video will undeniably have terrific marketing value, as Ronaldo looks to improve upon his already glistening business portfolio.
