On his personal page, Cristiano Ronaldo posted a photo of him relaxing by the swimming pool. However, what caught fans’ attention was the dense calluses appearing on the Portuguese superstar’s big toes and instep.

“No success is easy,” one fan commented. “Just looking at your legs, I will know how much effort you put in,” the second person expressed admiration. “Ronaldo is truly extraordinary,” the fan said.

In addition, some fans also wonder about CR7 wearing black toenails. This is a common habit in the sports world. Painting toenails will help athletes avoid fungal infections when wearing shoes to practice or compete for long periods of time.

Currently, Ronaldo is on vacation. The former Man Utd star was allowed by coach Roberto Martinez to miss the friendly match against Sweden on March 21. In addition to Ronaldo, Diogo Dalot, Joao Cancelo, Danilo Pereira, Otavio, Ruben Neves, Vitinha, Joao Felix, players who have just had to play for the parent club will also be able to rest.

It is expected that Ronaldo will return to training and be ready to play in the match against Slovenia at 2:45 a.m. on March 27. This is also the last friendly match for “Seleccao” to assemble the squad, before officially entering the campaign at the EURO 2024 finals taking place in June.
