Man Utd ace faces compensation claim

A football fan has revealed how he is making a personal injury compensation claim against Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo.

The 34-year-old Everton fan alleges the Portuguese international stamped on his arm when he went to collect the ball at a match at Goodison Park in September of this year.

He claims the incident left him with arm injuries that meant he was unable to work for two weeks and so has now employed the services of a no win no fee personal injury solicitor to help him pursue a compensation claim.

The incident, which allegedly saw 22-year-old Ronaldo dig his studs into the Toffees fan's arm, has been investigated by the police but no criminal charges were brought.

Talking to The Sun about the impending compensation claim, the football supporter said: "I haven't even had an apology."
