Superstar footballer, Cristiano Ronaldo has gifted Francis Ngannou a watch worth £87,000 ahead of the UFC legend’s cross-over fight with Tyson Fury in Saudi Arabia this weekend.
Ngannou was all smiles as he showed off the Jacob and Co watch, which came in a CR7 stylised case.
He was presented with the gift, from the limited edition line called ‘Heart of Ronaldo’, outside a Jacob and Co outlet.
‘Got to pick up my new watch ahead of fight week here in Riyadh,’ wrote Ngannou as he labelled Ronaldo his ‘brother’.
