Football transfer rumours: Cristiano Ronaldo in talks with Juventus and Facebook?

Today’s whispers are BBQ hot

Cristiano Ronaldo is apparently in talks with Facebook about allowing the tech giant to broadcast a 13-part reality show giving an insight into how the superstar and his family live on a day-to-day basis. Word is the Portuguese will be paid nearly £9m in return for opening up his home to Mark Zuckerburg’s spies, which is £9m more than the rest of us get. Details are sketchy at this stage but the hope is that the show will prove a fascinating exploration into what makes Ronaldo tick and enable the footballer to become a crossover sensation in a similar manner to the subjects of other highly successful fly-on-the-wall documentaries, such as the rock icon Ozzy Osbourne, United States government advisor Kim Kardashian, and Mr Bean.
