Dolores shared the pic on Instagram with the following caption:

"On the way to Manchester, kisses everyone!!!!"

This comes after Ronaldo has admitted that his mum is banned from attending his big matches.

Ronaldo told Piers Morgan:

"She's not allowed now to watch big games. I say, 'Listen, I don't have a father any more. I don't want to lose my mum, too, so you're not going to watch quarter-finals, semi-finals, or finals'.
"She gets so nervous, I don’t understand why. She is not allowed now to watch big games. I get friends to stay with her and she goes for walks around the house."

Ronaldo’s No.7 shirt smashes sales record

Ahead of his second debut for Manchester United this weekend, reports from Old Trafford have it that Cristiano Ronaldo’s shirt sales have now hit a staggering record £187 million.

It was gathered that the game would not be televised on TV stations in the UK, but 76,000 people really do have a golden ticket to see Man Utd vs Newcastle United game.

Although it remains uncertain if the striker will start tomorrow, one sure thing is that the Portuguese will be wearing his favourite No.7 shirt at the Theatre of Dreams.

Ronaldo’s family moves to the UK

The four children including Ronaldo Jnr, Alana, Mateo and Eva Maria were dressed in uniforms as they posed for a photo before heading to school.

The kids will be introduced to another language of learning having spent their years in Spain and Italy where their father worked as a professional footballer.
