Manchester United defender Eric Bailly has confirmed that players have stopped eating dessert in the Carrington canteen following the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo. Ronaldo is one of the fittest footballers in the world and has a reputation for making his teammates follow his strict regimen.
Ronaldo, who re-joined Manchester United in the summer transfer window, has been leading the club by example this season. The 36-year-old has taken part in almost every game this season, rarely looking out of breath. Under Ralf Rangnick, he has also pressed harder than most of his teammates, once again proving that age is only a number for him.
