5 world class players who are loathed by rival fans

Cristiano Ronaldo

Ronaldo has been the subject of countless boos in his career, even at the Bernabeu

He doesn’t even need a reason to be here. Not only Barca fans, but almost every other fan base in the world has jeered him at least once in their lifetime.

Be it in a remote stadium in the deepest corner of Europe or his own home ground at the Bernabeu, he has been the subject of countless boos in his career. But none more fierce than the ones he gets at the Camp Nou.

For someone who has won 3 Ballon d’Ors in an era of Lionel Messi, the term world class seems bleak when describing him—he is a playing legend for all that matters.

Yet, when one does her/his research on who is the most loathed player in the world, Cristiano Ronaldo’s name will pop up every now and then.
