Juventus star Cristiano Ronaldo has left his luxury city apartment and moved his family into a £3,500-a-week rented home near a quiet fishing village.
The 35-year-old has reportedly opted for a house in the country with a large garden so he enjoy some more space with his Spanish girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez and their young children.
Portuguese paper Correio da Manha’s magazine Vidas said the Juventus striker had moved to a detached five-bed home near the fishing village of Canical in the east of Madeira which was costing him £3,500 a week to rent.
The house, said to be “off the beaten track”, is understood to have a games room, gym, pool and large garden where children Ronaldinho Jr, nine and twins Eva and Matteo, two, can play with his daughter with Georgina, Alana Martina
The magazine quoted a source saying: “He felt he needed space, that he was getting a bit stifled inside four walls.
