Juventus goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny has revealed that his teammate, Cristiano Ronaldo was made to buy the entire squad iMacs after his 2018 red card against Valencia.
On his Champions League debut for the Old Lady, the Portuguese superstar was reduced to tears after being red-carded for pulling the hair of opposition defender Jeison Murillo.
Juventus went on to win 2-0 anyway, but boss Massimiliano Allegri’s disciplinary rules at the club stated that following a misdemeanor, the perpetrator must buy all of his team-mates a gift as an apology.
Despite his superstar status, Ronaldo was not above this rule, although he tried to wriggle out of it. He was so incensed at the decision, that for two months he refused to take his punishment, insisting that he’d done nothing wrong.
But eventually, Allegri calmly showed who was boss – and Ronaldo’s team-mates all ended up with new iMac computers.
