His statement is quite unexpected, given his relationship with Manchester United, a team he’s often voiced in. Speaking during a FIFA Q&A in 2019, he said:“‘I was more of a player than an audience back then but Manchester United was my team. Just the other day I came across an old picture of me wearing that infamous gray United jersey I bought with my son. [First Holy] Eight-year-old communion money.”
“When I look at that photo, I see my son. I would like to know where you are now. A real ‘Notorious’ soccer jersey!”” added. Additionally, he shared a photo of UFC rival Khabib Nurmagomedov wearing a United jersey just hours after he attended an event at Old Trafford last season.
