Did multimillionaire Cristiano Ronaldo (39) cheat on the Botox bill? According to British dermatologist Dr. Roshan Ravindran, the superstar still has unfinished business with him.
Ronaldo is said to owe the doctor £40,000 (48,000 euros) from his time at Manchester United (2021 to 2022). The British newspaper “The Sun” reports that Ravindran now wants to take legal action against the former star footballer.
Ronaldo debt? Doctor refers to ongoing procedure
In addition to his practice in Manchester, Ravindran also has another practice in London. Specialties include cosmetic procedures such as Botox treatments and eyebrow lifts. He is said to have treated not only Ronaldo, but also his partner Georgina Rodriguez.
However, the doctor declined to comment when asked by The Sun about the lawsuit, saying only: “It is an ongoing legal proceeding and as an expert I do not comment on my patients.”
There has been speculation about Botox treatments for “CR7” for a long time. The 2016 European champion’s forehead appears noticeably wrinkle-free, even in emotional moments. It has long been known that Ronaldo attaches great importance to his appearance.
Ronaldo returned to Manchester United in 2021, but was unable to repeat his previous successes in the northern English city.
After both sides terminated the contract after just over a year, Ronaldo has been playing for Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia since January 2023 and reportedly earns 200 million euros per year there. There should still be enough coal to cover the bill from Manchester.
