Cristiano Ronaldo's popularity has not suffered from his move to play in the Middle East.
The Portuguese defender of Riyadh's "AL-Nassr" club is happy with the rapidly growing number of fans on social networks.
It has been counted that just on "Instagram" alone, in the last 30 days, his number of followers has grown by 15 million people.
Meanwhile, other world-class players cannot boast such success.
On the contrary – both Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe are losing fans.
The ranks of the World Champion's fans have shrunk by 577 thousand in a month, while the new captain of the French national team lost about 250 thousand followers.
