Rooney: Ronaldo and I were very close

Derby County player-coach, Wayne Rooney has admitted that he was close to Juventus star, Cristiano Ronaldo when first joining Manchester United.

Rooney has recalled the time when he would take a much skinnier Ronaldo to McDonald’s as he tried to put on weight in his early days at Manchester United.

In an interview with The Times, Rooney has reminisced on old memories when the stars were teammates at Old Trafford during a successful time for the Red Devils. He said: “With Cristiano, when I first got to United we used to go to games and training together. I remember the night before a game stopping off at McDonald’s because he wanted a Big Mac.

“He was trying to put weight on because he was so thin.

“I was driving the car, having to go through the drive-through to get him a Big Mac.”
