• Lawyer Kunle also explained that the management of Kwara United have offered Ronaldo two-year deal
• Abiola added that the issue on ground is that Ronaldo wants five-year contract before joining the team

Famous Nigerian comedian lawyer Kunle who is also known as Cute Abiola has stated clearly that Kwara United have not signed Cristiano Ronaldo yet stressing that the club are still in negotiation with the Portugal international.

Ronaldo is currently clubless after leaving Premier League giants Manchester United before the start of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

The former Real Madrid star actually had issues with those in charge at Old Trafford due to the interview he granted Piers Morgan where he revealed that he has no respect for the coach.

He jetted out to Qatar with Portugal with the hopes of him winning the World Cup, but they were sent out in the quarter-final by Morocco who won 1-0.
