Amidst rumours of Cristiano Ronaldo returning to Sporting Clube de Portugal, the football star has bought a luxurious mansion in his homeland, which is said to be Portugal’s most expensive home.
After the upcoming World Cup in Qatar, Ronaldo, as reported by several publications, may leave Manchester United and return to Sporting CP, the club where he began his career. This could possibly be one of the reasons why he bought a new home in Portugal.
His latest purchase, which is Portugal’s most expensive home, is located in the Cascais region of Quinta da Marinha, one of the most expensive residential areas in the European country.
The three-floor mansion, which is 40 km from Lisbon, has an indoor area of 2,720 square meters and an outdoor area of 544 square meters with lots of open space and a large swimming pool, per Sportskeeda.
The south-facing location offers mesmerising views of the Atlantic Ocean and comes with an elevator and solar panels. The garage can accommodate up to 20 cars.
