I assume you know he's been accused of SA by an American woman and he paid her off?

I prefer Ronaldo Nazário anyway, the original one.

"The original one"? Ronaldo is Cristiano Ronaldo's surname. He hasn't taken Ronaldo Nazario's name.

Is that the same Declan Rice who was pictured hugging Thomas Partey at last night's match?

Yep good on Djed Spence for refusing to shake his hand.

Me too, I can’t believe lovely Brazilian Ronaldo has disappeared from the radar. Apart from when the dog ate his homework so he didn’t turn up to the World Cup final and let France win 💰
Portuguese Ronaldo is an Oily Prat

Lovely? this guys procures sex workers then doesn't pay them because they are men.

and thats just the stuff we know about!

Google Brazilian Ronaldo Sex Workers and you can find out all about it

Lesson of the thread: we really shouldn't be shocked when footballers turn out to be utter shits.

What?!

Ignore the poster. It relates to a he said she said in 2009 which Ronaldo paid a token sum on to settle out of court. It was a damages only claim with no charges brought by the police and was done in (surprise surprise) USA. The same woman has just recently tried to get more money out of him and has had her case thrown out.

he may have done it, I would be incredibly surprised, but the first thing this person did was file a civil suit so I’m not entirely sure what we should think. I hate cases like this that aren’t brought up with the police and charges filed because to me the first thing you would do it go to the police, not try to benefit financially. it makes the alleged victim difficult to believe, and I would always want to believe a victim, but we’ve been burned before with the likes of Amber Heard haven’t we, making it harder for women to be believed…filing a civil not criminal case is another thing that just stands very opposed to what victims go through and sets women back years

No this is another nonsense post.

Brazilian Ronaldo solicited what he thought was female sex workers, discovered they were male, asked them to leave without payment.

glaciercherry · Yesterday 17:09

Longestsongeveranditsshite · 23/06/2026 23:10

What?!

He signed an affidavit that confirmed that he committed this act.

He should be in jail.

I’m disgusted that being rich allows him to just walk away and not be treated like the disgraceful criminal he should be.

I didn't know about the alleged SA but he's a show off prick.

a previous poster described the Brazilian Ronaldo as lovely, yet he uses prostitutes, so lovely, he is not!

He signed an affidavit stating the facts that included anal rape.

He is an evil criminal.

It’s equivalent to writing letters to convicted rapists in prison because they also happen to be good looking.

They’re violent criminals.

Obviously the allegations and pay off stink of guilt, male entitlement. Most people aren’t even aware of the case.
As far as how he treats his fans, gives to charity, stood out years before other people for Palestinian people, refused to advertise for Coca Cola, encouraging kids to drink water, he has a good reputation, he is adored by younger people. Again the rape aside.
Hopefully he is a better man today.
To add. I didn’t know the gory details on the case.

Yes, this is what I thought…think it’s unfair to automatically say he raped someone when there’s no proof

Wtf! There’s no way he would have got away with anally raping someone?!

He does that winking thing a lot when he gets players booked etc. I don't know why it doesn't get him booked.

Boohoo, that's just the game. In football a player "wins a penalty" by skillfully making something appear like a foul, or worse than it is. Players are literally trained to do this - they make sure they fall over in the area if they lose the ball to "win a free kick", they roll over and get the refs attension by rolling around like they're in a swarm of bees (only to spring back up moments later). It's gross and pathetic, it's not sportsmanship, but it is how you play football. Other sports do not allow such behaviour.
