“Shameless if true!” — Netizens in DISBELIEF by Cristiano Ronaldo’s social media ‘propaganda’ with a fan account

Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo faced yet another controversy, after a recent post by a popular Ronaldo fan page, claimed to have been associated with the player in a paid partnership. The 38-year-old’s social team has been accused of “paying troll accounts” on social media.

Cristiano Ronaldo, a highly popular athlete with millions of fans, is linked to numerous fan pages that actively support him. These pages, accused of discrediting Ronaldo’s rivals, mainly Lionel Messi, allegedly receive payment from the former Real Madrid star and his team.

One such Instagram page, ‘GOATnaldo Junction,’ posted in support of Ronaldo’s recent statement on the credibility of individual awards, asserting that the Ballon d’Or is more meaningful when genuinely earned.

The post, now deleted, surprisingly revealed a ‘Paid partnership’ with the 38-year-old. Screenshots circulating on social media indicate that Ronaldo compensated the fan account for sharing the post, forming a partnership.

Meanwhile, this is the former United star’s third recent controversy, after he garnered a lot of criticism when he spoke out in favor of the Saudi PL, claiming it to be superior to the French league, and also questioned the credibility of the Ballon d’Or and FIFA Best awards.
