FANS REACT AS REAL MADRID FAIL TO WISH C. RONALDO ‘A HAPPY BIRTHDAY’
One of the greatest players ever in the history of football, Cristiano Ronaldo, celebrated his 34th birthday on February 05, 2019. As Ronaldo turned 34, a section of fans expressed disappointment as Real Madrid refused to send a birthday greeting on social media to one of their biggest players in history.
Having moved to Juventus in the summer of 2018, ending his 9-year-long stay at Real Madrid, the Portuguese footballer has helped Juventus soar new heights in Italian football.
While there’s no doubting the impact Ronaldo had at Real Madrid for nearly a decade-long stay in the Spanish capital. With four UEFA Champions League titles, the title of club’s all-time record goalscorer and numerous other accolades to his names, Ronaldo cemented his place in the history books at the club and produced performances that not many footballers in the history of the sport have been able to match.
Although it was understood that a transfer from Madrid to Turin was all smooth, the relations between the club and the player don’t seem to be the same anymore as they were before. Whenever a player celebrates his birthday, it has often been seen that football clubs put in a message on social media, be it for a current player or former. While Manchester United – Ronaldo’s former club – did put a message on Twitter wishing him a happy 34th birth anniversary, no such post came from Los Blancos.

Why you don’t send to Cristiano Ronaldo happy birthday wishes?!!! Real Madrid management You are so Dirty, Bad and Ugly

“Let’s make this clear. Madridistas were mad when Cristiano Ronaldo said Real Madrid was never a family.”
“A day after his birthday, neither Real Madrid nor anyone in
the team congratulated him… BUT ONE!”
“Marcelo was the only family Cristiano ever had. Are you mad
at CR7 now?”

“Real Madrid are yet to wish Ronaldo’s birthday. I hope they will lose the el Clasico clash”
@Ahmadfido
“All of Ronaldo’s current and former teams wished him a happy birthday except Real Madrid. Ungrateful and pathetic”.
@jaybeethefire
This @realmadrid is a stupid club. Can’t even wish Ronaldo a happy birthday. Classless.
Manchester United, Ronaldo’s club before he joined Real Madrid in 2009, remained grateful of what the 5-time Ballon d’Or winner did for them before leaving for Spain. The Red Devils shared a couple of tweets on Ronaldo’s birthday.
A number of current and former teammates extended their wishes to Cristiano on social media, hoping to see the Portuguese continue his rich form on the field for many more years, having already given fans all across the globe plenty to cheer about for more than a decade.
