Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo once again set an example of off-court behavior shortly after his 36th birthday.
The Juventus attacker, along with his partner, Georgina Rodriguez, they had a huge gesture of generosity with a seven-year-old boy who lives in Braga (Portugal), reported the TUDN portal.
Cristiano and his partner bear the costs of treatment
The child suffers from neuroblastoma, which is a type of cancer that affects parts such as the spinal cord and neck. The disease was diagnosed in 2019 and since then they began to ask for help to overcome the medical problem.
CR7 and his girlfriend covered the costs of the treatment, which will take place in Barcelona. Cristiano’s sister-in-law announced the news in a story on Instagram.

“Tomás is already on his way to Barcelona to undergo tests and begin cancer treatment at the Vall D’Hebro Hospital. Thank you, Georgina and Cristiano Ronaldo for your help, solidarity and great heart, “he wrote.
Both Cristiano and Georgina have made other gestures of generosity in case of medical problems. Last year, CR7’s girlfriend auctioned off a shirt of the Portuguese footballer in order to raise funds for the fight against covid-19.
