Why Ronaldo painted his toenails

The former Real Madrid star shared two gym photos of him and his son on social media with the caption translated as, 'Today with my partner', but fans noticed something else.

Ronaldo’s nails, particularly those of his big toes, were painted black, similar to how ladies do it fashionably, leading to questions in the comments.

The paintings were not done for fashion, even though he likes to keep a good look. According to Men's Health, it was done to give the nails a protective layer against fungi and bacteria in sweaty boots for hours.

For MMA fighters, it hardens the nails and prevents cracking or splitting up during a fight.

Cristiano Jr plays for the Al-Nassr U13 side and was one of the scorers in their 4-1 against Ohod, which helped them clinch the U13 Premier League title.
