The Portuguese ace has admitted that he could play in the peninsula one day because he loves Italian football and much more about the country…Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo will face Italian giants Inter in the Champions League this evening. The Red Devils will try to build on the goalless first leg draw to progress to the quarter-finals of the competition.
And the European and World Player of the year has revealed his passion for the Belpaese in an interview with Turin-based daily Tuttosport.
“Will I ever play in Italy? Never say never in life,” he smiled.
“I do gladly travel there, like I did last summer, because there are the most beautiful and sexiest girls in the world…
“All jokes aside, I truly admire your brand of football and you are world champions. I particularly like [Alessandro] Del Piero; he is a unique and extraordinary footballer - a true professional for all the people who love this sport.”
The 24-year-old also reiterated how close he came to joining Inter before the Red Devils swooped in.
“Yes, I was close to moving to Inter but Arsenal and Juventus were also interested,” he asserted.
“[Inter scout Luis] Suarez came to Lisbon but my agent, Jorge Mendes, told me that [Sir Alex] Ferguson wanted me at all costs.”
