"Worse Than LeBron": Cristiano Ronaldo's Swollen Feet Leave Soccer Fans Shocked

Soccer fans were shocked by a photo of Cristiano Ronaldo's bare feet. The picture, which Ronaldo posted on Instagram, showed the 39-year-old's toes all swollen.

Cristiano Ronaldo, one of the hardest working men in soccer, put his feet up on Sunday.

Two days after leading Al Nassr to a 1-0 win over Al-Ahli in the Saudi Pro League, the 39-year-old posted a photograph via his Instagram story showing his legs in a pair of recovery pants.

Ronaldo captioned the picture with the word "RECHARGING", while he also tagged his wellness brand, 'Erakulis'.

In the photo, Ronaldo was sat on a sun lounger by a pool with the sea in the background.

But many fans chose instead to focus on Ronaldo's feet, which appeared to be swollen, while the nail on one of his big toes was black.

One fan shared the photo on X.com and wrote: "22 years of pro footy man look at his feet.. he wakes up with crazy pain everyday for sure".

A second replied: "His big toes are screaming for help".

Another fan then compared Ronaldo's feet to those of NBA legend LeBron James.

They wrote: "This is worse than LeBron wow I heard he used to wear super tight boots too".

James went viral earlier this year after an old photo emerged of him walking barefoot on a beach.

In the picture, the basketball star's toes were seen overlapping each other in an unusual way.
