Cristiano Ronaldo Reportedly Left £17k Tip At Greek Hotel

It's no secret that Cristiano Ronaldo is absolutely WADDED - even if he did have to accept a whopping €18.8 million (£16.5 million) fine from Spanish courts as part of a tax fraud case recently.

Thankfully for him, it doesn't look like that multi-million slap on the wrist has made too much of a dent in his finances - as proven by the fact he's reportedly just tipped staff at a Greek hotel £17,850 ($23,175).

According to the Sun, the footballer popped off to the stunning Costa Navarino resort in the Pelopnnese region of Greece straight after Portugal were booted from the World Cup.

And apparently he was so impressed by staff there (or so heartbroken from his team's exit from Russia 2018) that he left them the huge £17,850 tip on leaving - asking hotel management to split the sum evenly among all the workers.
