Ronaldo leaves huge €20k tip for Greek hotel employees

Reports claim that the new Juventus signing left a rather generous amount after being well looked after during his post-World Cup holiday

Cristiano Ronaldo apparently demonstrated his generous side after reports claimed he left a hefty tip for hotel staff at the resort he was staying in on holiday in Greece. 

The former Real Madrid superstar swapped Los Blancos for Juventus this summer in a stunning transfer that will cost €100m (£88m/$117m) plus €12m (£11m/$14m) in additional fees.

And before joining up with the Italian side, the prolific Portugal international took a vacation with his family after his World Cup exploits that saw his country knocked out by Uruguay at the last-16 stage. 

It would seem the 33-year-old and his partner Georgina Rodriguez were very well taken care of by the staff of the hotel, with Ronaldo reportedly leaving a tip worth €20,000 (£18k/$23k). 

“The 10 employees, who had been tasked with providing services to Ronaldo’s family and to keep them away from the paparazzi, each received €2,000,” the Greek online sports magazine, SPORtime, claimed.

The Royal Methoni villa, where Ronaldo spent 10 days with his family and friends after being knocked out of the World Cup in Russia, offered round-the-clock butler services along with sand dunes to keep photographers out.
