Cristiano Ronaldo has been enjoying vacation with his family on the £5.5m yacht. During this time, Ronaldo caught the attention of fans with his painted toenails, which were seen to be coloured black in various photos.
While some fans were curious about this fashion choice, it turns out there is a reason behind Ronaldo’s painted toenails. According to a source via German outlet Bild, Ronaldo is doing it to protect his nails from fungi and bacteria.
The source said: “Many top athletes do this to protect their nails from fungi and bacteria when they are stuck in sweaty shoes for hours. Even Mike Tyson.”
UFC fighters also paint their toenails for a specific reason. It is said to help prevent their toenails from cracking or splitting during fights. By applying a layer of nail polish, the toenails become hardened, reducing the risk of damage during an intense fight.
Cristiano Ronaldo is famous for doing whatever it takes to extend his amazing career in football. One of his regular practices is using cryogenic ice baths to help him recover faster from intense workouts and matches.
