Ronaldo draws Pepe
The pair are obviously close, having played in the same team for many years with both Portugal and Spanish giants Real Madrid.
39-year-old defender Pepe was perturbed as to why his teammate had burst out laughing. As Ronaldo revealed the unflattering drawing, the 37-year-old Manchester United star started laughing uncontrollably, likely at his own drawing ability.
