For a budding footballer to share a dressing room with someone like Cristiano Ronaldo is nothing short of remarkable. Jadon Sancho, aged 21, grabbed that opportunity as he was signed by Manchester United ahead of the 2021-22 season.
The English forward was very excited to play alongside one of the greatest footballers of all time. But it seems Sancho’s enthusiasm hasn’t waned yet. Sancho, in a viral video, can be seen constantly bragging to his England teammate Raheem Sterling about the fact that he plays with the Portuguese striker.
Sterling, talking about Sancho’s constant bragging, says, “Every day Ronaldo, we think you play with him.” That certainly doesn’t deter Sancho as the former Borussia Dortmund player quickly replied, “You want his shirt? just let me know.”

Sterling, on the other hand, was signed by London legends Chelsea ahead of the 2022-23 season. The 27-year-old English striker played 339 matches for Manchester City and returned to the net 131 times for the defending Premier League champions.
