Cristiano Ronaldo’s wedding present to his agent trumps pretty much every other present ever

The best best man

What do you buy for the man who has everything? Oh yeah, that will do!

Super-agent Jorge Mendes is tying the knot in Portugal this weekend and his best man will be none other than his premier client, Cristiano Ronaldo.

Mendes is one of the wealthiest men in Portugal, with a fortune believed to be in excess of €100 million. This means that buying him a present must be an absolute nightmare. However, it’s doubtful that he will be disappointed with Ronaldo’s gift.

According to Portuguese reports, the Real Madrid superstar has completely upstaged all the other guests with his ludicrously extravagant gift. Apparently, CR7 has splashed out on a Greek island worth €50 million as a wedding present.

Ronaldo will be joined by James Rodriguez, Pepe and Radamel Falcao and Jose Mourinho at the wedding. All of whom are presumably in the process of returning blenders and crockery and frantically looking for a gift that doesn’t look pathetic next to a GREEK ISLAND!
