Cristiano Ronaldo clears the air on Messi nickname slur, threatens to sue journalist.

Portuguese star, Cristiano Ronaldo has cleared the air on the story which was published on several sports websites that he regularly uses swear word for his nemesis, Lionel Messi in Real Madrid’s dressing room.
The Real Madrid goal-machine set the record straight on his Facebook message.
“‎News is circulating that I allegedly made offending remarks regarding Lionel Messi. This is absolutely false and I’ve assured my lawyer takes action to sue those responsible.  I have the utmost respect for all my professional colleagues and Messi is obviously no exception.”
‎
Meanwhile the story emanated from a book titled ‘Messi’ published by a revered ‎
Spanish football journalist and broadcaster, Guillem Balague. 
Excerpts from the book.
‎‎”Ronaldo, perhaps as a symptom of the immaturity that marks so many footballers, thinks it necessary to put on a brave face in front of his team-mates, not be scared of Messi and to rise to the challenge. All very macho; all very false.

“And that is why, according to some Real Madrid players, CR7 has a nickname for him: ‘motherf—-r’; and if he sees someone from the club speaking to Leo, he also ends up being baptised ‘motherf—-r’.”
