Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo has challenged his manager Sir Alex Ferguson to another goalscoring bet which would see one of the pair lose their hair at the end of the season. The Portuguese winger won £400 on a bet with Fergie last season after beating a 15-goal target. This season he wants another hair-raising bet and wants to see Fergie parting with his side-parting if he bags more than 20 goals.
The Sun – ever adept at finding an anonymous source to provide a wacky quote – claims a ‘Reds source’ (or a ketchup as we like to call it at Pies) said: “Ronaldo has been joking with pals he will be able to give the gaffer serious hairdryer treatment. Ronny is really confident. He spends a lot of time on his hair so wouldn’t put it at risk lightly.â€
