“Cristiano Ronaldo snubbed me when I tried exchanging jerseys with him" – Super Eagles player Nwankwo

Simy Nwankwo, a Super Eagles of Nigeria and Crotone of Italy striker, has revealed his post-match encounter with star footballer, Cristiano Ronaldo.

According to Goal, during a league match in February, Juventus were winning Crotone 3-0. Simy was introduced as a 72nd-minute substitute for Adam Ounas, however, he could not find the back of the net for his team.

Simy said after the game had ended, he tried to swap his shirt with Ronaldo but he did not get it as the Serie A top scorer gave it to his compatriot Pedro Pereira instead.

Despite the snub, Simy said he hopes to get a shirt from Bayern Munich’s Robert Lewandowski and Barcelona’s Lionel Messi.

“I tried to exchange the shirt with Cristiano Ronaldo, but he gave it to Pedro Pereira who is Portuguese like him,” Simy told Tribuna.

“I would [also] like those of Messi and Lewandowski.”

Simy has scored 19 goals in 34 league matches so far and he is currently the highest scoring Nigerian in the history of Serie A with 29 goals, after surpassing Obafemi Martins’ record of 28 goals.

There's no doubt that Penaldo on & off pitch is egoistic and arrogant. That's why many love Messi, down to earth despite all his achievements.

not bad at all from cr7 in life you can't please everyone

Ronaldo did what I would have done by giving my fellow Nigerian my jersey, I don't think the right word is snubbing, it's just an issue of understanding.

People should respect themselves to avoid unnecessary embarrassment.

Ronaldo simply can't please the whole world and exchange jerseys with everybody. Let's please respect that and give some space.

You better strive hard so people can start struggling for your shirt too

Nonsense talk like 6 of you want Ronaldo Jersey u want him give you when his country man also want that. Not everyone will be like one president that snub his country man to vote fir one Aboki from another country.

Oboi they huzle dey go...

maybe cr7 av already booked it for someone else or he just not in d mood to swap one

swears bro...he Is speaking like he is entitled to it..it depends on mood n if cr7 feels like not swapping, its his choice..
some players dnt even care about how these stars do feel before asking for one..
I watched a barca game dt messi was having issues with his groin n he was playing with caution to avoid injury. after d game, a player ran to him n asked for his jersey, leo jus signalled him no n moved away simply bcoz he is more worried abt aving an injury in dt game..

Ronaldo didn't want to contact Naija eczema and badluck

Thank you. You said it all. Some don't even have any good manner of approach.

To Coman give his shirt to an itiboribo to Coman spoil his brand name .... Oga face your market ooo

Stop the entitlement shit bro, CR7 still remains the greatest of all time....

The media trying so hard to make it look like Ronaldo snubbed the guy.. racist shit. Meanwhile the kwankwo guy stated it that Ronaldo gave it to his compatoriot...

Every1 want d Jersey

So dnt blame CR7

Ronaldo wore just one jersey and he already gave it to another player and yet you want to stir up emotions by saying he snubbed you.


You want his shorts or what exactly. You will see as Ronaldo haters will use this to claim Ronaldo is condescending and egoist

His shirt his choice
Simy should zip it!
