Cristiano Ronaldo has publicly called out Spanish media outlets for what he describes as "disrespectful" reporting about his legendary career at Real Madrid.
The football superstar took to Instagram to address recent claims circulating in Spain, where unnamed sources suggested Ronaldo had demanded special treatment during his time at the Spanish giants.
Ronaldo's Fiery Social Media Response
In a rare display of frustration, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner posted: "It's impossible to be neutral when you're constantly dealing with lies and disrespect." He went on to state that these reports were "completely false" and represented "yet another attempt" to tarnish his reputation.
The Real Madrid Legacy
Ronaldo enjoyed nine spectacular seasons with Real Madrid between 2009-2018, becoming the club's all-time leading goalscorer with 450 goals in 438 appearances. During this period, he helped the team secure four Champions League titles and two La Liga championships.
The Portuguese forward emphasised his deep respect for Real Madrid and its fans, stating: "My history with the club is written in gold letters - no fabricated stories can change that."
Media Backlash and Fan Reactions
The post has sparked widespread debate among football fans, with many supporting Ronaldo's stance against what they see as unfair media treatment. Others have questioned why the Al-Nassr star chose to address these particular rumours now, years after leaving Spain.
Spanish journalists have yet to respond publicly to Ronaldo's accusations, though sources close to Madrid-based media suggest the reports in question came from less reputable outlets.
