Why I avoided Cristiano Ronaldo when I bumped into him on holiday – Lampard


Chelsea legend and former manager, Frank Lampard has revealed that he avoided football icon, Cristiano Ronaldo when he bumped into him on a holiday.

The Englishman told BBC Sport that he bumped into the Portugal captain on vacation, adding that he avoided him.

“I actually bumped into him [Cristiano Ronaldo]on a holiday a few months ago. I was in the same hotel on the beach.

“Unfortunately, his sunspot every day was a bit down from me and I made sure to stay away from him because he was in incredible shape, so I gave him a little bit of distance! I pulled him over [as] I wanted my son to have a picture because of the player he’s been.

“I quickly put my t-shirt on and had a nice picture with him,” Lampard revealed.

Lampard further explained that the former Real Madrid and Juventus ace had been going to the gym twice with his trainer even on vacation and he applauded him for his dedication.

“I noticed he was going to the gym twice a day with his personal trainer. Just shows you his dedication to what he does.

“I might have been sipping a beer watching him and I did give him a ripple of applause as he walked back,” he added.
