It’s been a busy few days for Cristiano Ronaldo.
After parading the European Championships trophy to fans ahead of Portugal’s friendly defeat to Sweden on Tuesday night, as well as scoring his 71st international goal, it was more business action off the pitch for the Real Madrid legend on Wednesday.
Ronaldo was in his hometown island Madeira for the official unveiling of the new ‘Aeroporto Cristiano Ronaldo’ and a gold-plated statue, which has so far stirred up much debate on social media.
He said: “Thank you for being here in my honour. Seeing my name being given to this airport is something very special, everyone knows that I am proud of my country and especially my home city.”
