Arnaut Danjuma, a Villarreal forward and Manchester United target, has revealed what Red Devils star Cristiano Ronaldo told him when the two teams met in the Champions League last season.
Danjuma, 25, has scored 16 goals in 34 appearances for Unai Emery’s team this season. He was a member of Villarreal’s team that lost 2-1 at Manchester United last September.
Cristiano Ronaldo scored in the 95th minute to break Yellow Submarine hearts at Old Trafford.
Danjuma, on the other hand, stood out throughout the game and has done so during his stay at the Estadio de la Cerámica.
His performances have piqued the interest of a number of clubs, including Manchester United. The Dutch winger has stated that he idolized Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo.
He chatted with Freshly Grounded’s YouTube channel on his time at Old Trafford, and was asked which player he looked up to as a kid:
“There are many heroes, but Cristiano Ronaldo has always been a childhood hero of mine.”
The former Bournemouth winger then revealed what the Portuguese star told him when the two teams met at Old Trafford in September:
“We swapped shirts in the changing room at Old Trafford, and that’s when I had a small talk with him as well.” ‘Very excellent game, man, keep going,’ he urged to me. It’s little things like that that make a huge difference.”
