Katia Aveiro, the sister of Cristiano Ronaldo has slammed Virgil Van Dijk over a joke he cracked about her brother.
Van Dijk during an interview at the 2019 Ballon d’Or awards event in Paris last night joked about the absence of Ronaldo.
Ronaldo missed the event for opting to attend the 2019 Gran Gala del Calcio gala in Milan to collect his ‘Best Player in Serie A’ award.
When Van Dijk was made aware by a reporter of Ronaldo’s absence which meant he had one less rival to worry about, the Liverpool defender replied: ‘Was he a rival then?’
Responding to his claim, Katia Aveiro slammed him as seen below.
‘I think there are people living completely frustrated !!! And unrealistic… such humility!’ Katia wrote.
‘It is well known that Ronaldo will not win tonight’s prize. Although I have won important collective titles … but this is another conversation and that up ahead we will see where the truth about football will come !!!
‘Now, dear Virgil, where you are going, Cristiano Ronaldo has gone and has come a thousand times.
‘You see, my dear Virgil, that Cristiano Ronaldo was a tri-champion in the country where you have been playing for years and you still haven’t got your hand in the can.
‘Cristiano Ronaldo was even the best player and best scorer in the country where you play Virgil. By the way, I was even younger than you.
Then, dear Virgil, Cristiano Ronaldo went to other places and became the greatest player in the history of a clubezito.
‘Real Madrid, tell you something Virgil? Maybe so, because this club, with this Cristiano guy, even beat you in the Champions League final. Of these, Ronaldo already has five, Virgil.
And that fellow Ronaldo and team-mates, with the corners on his chest, crushed your “orange” in a final. Was it hard, Virgil? We have pity. And, dear Virgil, In one of the least successful times of his career, Cristiano Ronaldo has won even more titles than you. Awesome, isn’t it?
‘Now Virgil will win titles from those who really count and then we’ll talk. When you have a handful of them, the really important ones, you might be able to sit at the table with Cristiano. Or as they say in our land, it grows and appears!
‘It’s for me Cristiano you are and you will always be the best player in the world !!! And who does not like to put it on the wheel of the plate !!! (as they say in our land, small for many) but where came the best ever.’
