A change in Cristiano Ronaldo house?

According to a report in the Sun Football, Cristiano Ronaldo has moved to the countryside after feeling stifled at home. The new Cristiano Ronaldo fishing village home costs Â£3.5k-a-week and his entire family have shifted base from their luxurious townhouse in Madeira. The Cristiano Ronaldo house in Madeira was stunning seven-storey apartment complex overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. The Juventus forward was heavily criticised by a Madeira politician after the Portuguese international was spotted enjoying a stroll with his family on the streets during the coronavirus lockdown. He was also criticised by general practitioner Rafael Macedo on social media, only to backtrack on it saying he would never speak ill of the former Manchester United star.
