Real Reason why Cristiano Ronaldo wears black toenail polish

The Portuguese star has a reason to paint his toes with black nail polish.

In a recent social media post, Cristiano Ronaldo’s toenails caught the attention of fans, but there’s a very good reason why they’re polished.

Following a workout, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner posted a photo of himself and his 13-year-old son, Cristiano Jr., flaunting their bodies on Thursday.

The Instagram photo received over 15 million likes, but it wasn’t the first time that many people noticed Cristiano Ronaldo’s toes were painted.

He previously posted a picture of himself recuperating in a sauna, and remarks like “Why bro got black toenails?” were made.

Fans asked, “Is no one going to talk about the black painted nails?” .

However, Ronaldo has a real reason for painting his toenails black, so it’s not just for show.

Why does Cristiano Ronaldo wear black nail polish on his toes?

The 39-year-old paints his nails to keep bacteria and fungi away because, as an athlete, he spends a lot of time in sweaty boots and shoes, according to German publication BILD.

The polish successfully hardens the toenails and forms a protective coating, preventing cracking. It is prevalent in sports, especially among boxers, MMA fighters, and track athletes.

During the height of his boxing career, heavyweight legend Mike Tyson is said to have painted his nails. Israel Adesanya, a former middleweight champion in the UFC, has also done the same.

Despite not being married to his other half, Georgina Rodriguez, Cristiano Ronaldo was only seen sporting a black band last month.

‘Oura Health’ is a Finnish company that makes smart fitness rings, and the ring costs about £236. Among other things, it monitors Ronaldo’s heart rate, body temperature, mobility, and amount of sleep.

Cristiano Ronaldo is the epitome of a fitness enthusiast, adhering to a rigorous regimen that includes taking five naps daily. However, he is still going strong at the age of 40, suggesting that his fitness routine is working.

He continues to surprise with his goal-scoring quality on the pitch at the age of 40 and recently won the Nations League with Portugal.
