Average worst footballer, he was always jealous Jota was a better player than Penaldo! Pussy nigga tap in mechant
However, fans of the player believes his not showing up is not a big deal, as Ronaldo must have personally reached out to the family
HIS PRESENCE WONT RESURRECT THE MAN, HE HAS HIS REASON HE SHOULD BE LEFT ALONE
he has paid his respects and that is alright, must he attend, abi did he kill anybody?
He has said that he did not want to go there and have attention focused on him
instead of on the brothers and the grieving family because like it or not, people crowd around him wherever he goes.
I am sure he had a conversation with the family and they understand. Make una rest abeg.
