Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo has begun a 5-day quarantine in the English city of Manchester after arriving in the city following his return to his former club Manchester United. However, Ronaldo will be experiencing the quarantine mandated by authorities in England in a luxurious mansion, as reported by the British newspaper "Daily Mail." This experience is different from many who have been forced to spend their quarantine in hotels or designated facilities.
The mansion where Ronaldo is staying in Manchester features seven rooms. Ronaldo (36 years old) had left the city of Faro in Portugal on his private jet heading to Manchester. He traveled with his girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez and his children Cristiano Ronaldo Jr., Alana, Eva, and Mateo. Photos reveal the mansion's luxury, which includes a swimming pool, gym, and cinema room that Ronaldo will be able to enjoy with his young family before beginning training next week.
The mansion is also under tight security, with security patrols outside the building, and members of his security team were photographed enjoying a take-out meal outside the mansion on Saturday afternoon. The reason for Ronaldo's quarantine is not entirely clear; some interpretations suggest that he may have been placed in quarantine for 5 days since Portugal was added to London's amber list, and it is believed to be a precautionary measure taken by the Manchester United management.
The "Red Devils" have suffered from the COVID-19 pandemic, as 9 of their players were infected at the end of July, disrupting the club's match schedule.
