Portuguese Footballer Teases C. Ronaldo About Joining French League

The Portuguese international team-mates enjoy a banter-filled relationship even when at their respective clubs.

Ronaldo laughs off the ambitious attempt every time, says Fonte, shutting down the requests to leave Juventus.

Fonte has not given up however, and jokingly said he would love to see his friend beat Lionel Messi and Paris Saint-Germain to the Ligue 1 title. Messi joined Lille’s rival this week from Barcelona.
“It will be even more difficult for us [now that Messi is in France], but we are up to the challenge,” Fonte said to TalkSport. “Every day I write to Cristiano Ronaldo to come to Lille. He just answers: ‘ha ha ha’.

“We’ll try to use our weapons and I’ll try to bring Cristiano back in some way. I’ll make a plan! All he has to do is [win] the French title.”
