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.

Warren said on camera: ” He’s signing for Arsenal.”

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

The Portugal international blasted the club from top to bottom during an explosive interview before his dramatic dismissal.

That led to the 38-year-old moving to Saudi Arabia where he has been playing for Al-Nassr ever since.

Ronaldo spent eight years in the Premier League across two stints at United.
