Cristiano Ronaldo has worked hard to establish a reputation as an all-time great and would never “tarnish that history” by making a controversial move to Manchester City or Barcelona, claims former Manchester United team-mate Fabio.
A switch to Etihad Stadium for the five-time Ballon d’Or winner was mooted over the summer once it became clear he would leave Juventus.
Fabio believes that speculation was sparked by agent Jorge Mendes, and there was no way the Man Utd and Real Madrid icon was going to consider a transfer that would damage his reputation.
