Nigerian Afrobeats star David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has revealed that he is a big fan of football legend Cristiano Ronaldo and claimed that the two regularly communicate.
Davido made the comments during a livestream with content creator and streamer Carter Efe.
The singer said he supported Portugal during the recently concluded 2026 FIFA World Cup because he has friends in the Portuguese national team.
“Because I have a lot of friends in the Portuguese team. I want Portugal to win,” Davido said.
When Carter Efe suggested that his support was mainly because of Ronaldo, Davido replied:
“I love Ronaldo, I’m a CR7 fan.”
The singer then claimed that he regularly speaks with the five-time Ballon d’Or winner, saying in Pidgin that he talks to the football legend “back to back”.
Davido also showed Efe what appeared to be a chat with Ronaldo on his phone.
The sight left Efe excited, as he repeatedly exclaimed:
“God, I don mad! I don mad! I don mad! I don mad!”
The video has since spread widely on social media.
Davido has previously shown his love for football and has been pictured with several international football stars.
However, the authenticity of the chat shown during the livestream could not be independently verified.
