Former Manchester United defender discusses having lunch with Cristiano Ronaldo
During his coverage of the 2018 World Cup, former Manchester United defender Patrice Evra shared details of a meal he had with Cristiano Ronaldo. The Frenchman revealed how the Portuguese legend's dedication to training and caring for his body extends to his eating habits.
Evra played 9,042 minutes across 121 games with the legendary Portuguese star for the Red Devils. He discussed a lunchtime experience with the iconic forward, saying (via The Mirror):
"I will give advice to anybody - when Cristiano invites you for lunch, just say no. Not because of the food, but it feels like a training session over there. He asked me to come after training, I was really tired, but at the table was just salad and plain white chicken, just water, no juice."
