Although Cristiano Ronaldo no longer plays for Real Madrid or Juventus and hence wasn’t on the pitch, this fan made sure everyone remembers him.

While Cristiano Ronaldo’s fan following continues to rise, the maestro is gracing the pitch away from the European and American limelight. The former Real Madrid and Juventus star is currently showcasing his magic at Al Nassr FC in the Saudi Pro League. And he recently clinched victory in the Arab Cup, solidifying his status as a modern-day football deity.
Nevertheless, his “siuuuu” celebration is being imitated in Saudi Arabia as well. Because it isn’t just a gesture; it’s an embodiment of passion, dedication, and the unbreakable bond between an athlete and their supporters.
