CRISTIANO RONALDO wants to return his Ballon d’Or award as he feels Lionel Messi deserves the accolade more. At least those are the reports coming from Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo on what was yesterday’s version of April Fools’ Day in Spain.
The Real Madrid superstar picked up his fifth Ballon d’Or award earlier this month to move level with the Barcelona forward on the amount of times to have won the prestigious trophy.
Cristiano Ronaldo is not known for his humility and Mundo Deportivo have decided to mock the 32-year-old with their story based on this month’s earlier events.
Ronaldo won five titles with Los Blancos in 2017, including last season’s Champions League and La Liga.
But this season he has struggled to find form and after last week’s humiliating 3-0 defeat to Barca in El Clasico, Ronaldo told his team-mates he wanted to return the award.
