New Real Madrid signing
Cristiano Ronaldo has revealed
he was named after former US president Ronald Reagan!
Asked about how his parents came to name him, former
Manchester United star
Ronaldo told AS:
"Ronaldo was because my mother
was always an admirer of Ronald Reagan, who was president of the
United States, and wanted to give me his name as a gesture of
admiration for him.
"And for Cristiano, in Portugal it is a usual name and my family
is religious. I really like my two names."
