FRANK WARREN joked Cristiano Ronaldo is returning to the Premier League for Arsenal.
Al-Nassr superstar Ronaldo linked up with Warren in Saudi Arabia to watch Anthony Joshua take on Otto Wallin.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner had a front-row seat as the camera caught him sitting next to the boxing promoter.
That was when the 71-year-old, who is a big Arsenal fan, decided to tease football fans watching from home by suggesting he convinced CR7 to move to north London.

Ronaldo left the Premier League last year following an acrimonious exit from Manchester United.
