ALBAWABA - Former Brazilian footballer Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima recently sparked controversy and anger from Real Valladolid fans on social media after a clip captured him leaving a restaurant drunk.
Real Valladolid fans, a La Liga football club owned by Ronaldo, targeted the former footballer for poor management and deteriorating performance. The controversial clip captured Ronaldo intoxicated as his friends tried shielding him from the abundance of cameras swarming the area.
Real Valladolid fans have expressed concern for months, accusing Ronaldo of neglecting his football club and actively seeking to sell it since his purchase in 2018, even after continued efforts to avoid relegation.
The former football star also used to own Brazil's Corinthians, a football club which usually competes in Campeonato Brasileiro Série A, but has long sold it. Video: Ronaldo spotted drunk outside a restaurant

Several fans took to social media and expressed their anger about the situation. A social media user took to Musk's X (formerly known as Twitter) and wrote, "At this point, none of the brave local sports media has commented. Is this not noteworthy? Don't the fans have a right to know? Seven years of complicit silence!"
Another added, "He's partying while the club is falling apart."
On the contrary, several others took to Ronaldo's defense, stating that he's not the only one who gets drunk. An X user wrote, "Is it really a problem if he has a few drinks?"

The organizing committee has announced that the total prize money will exceed $36.5 million (approximately 132.9 million Qatari Riyals), a record figure that positions the tournament among major global competitions.

Tournament Significance and History The Arab Cup is one of the oldest regional tournaments, with its first edition taking place in Lebanon in 1963. Since then, the competition has undergone various developments, culminating in FIFA taking over its organization starting with the 2021 edition, also held in Qatar, which saw Algeria crowned champions after defeating Tunisia in the final. The 2025 edition holds special significance as it follows Qatar's successful hosting of the 2022 World Cup, providing an opportunity to reuse the world-class facilities and stadiums while reinforcing the sporting legacy of the World Cup in the Arab region. Expectations and Aspirations As the tournament approaches, Arab teams are increasingly setting their sights on competing for the title and substantial prize money. Algeria enters as the defending champion and one of the favorites, alongside strong contenders such as Morocco, which made history at the 2022 World Cup, as well as Egypt, Tunisia, Saudi Arabia, and host nation Qatar. The tournament will serve as an ideal platform for Arab teams to test their capabilities and gain experience in a highly competitive environment, especially with matches taking place in world-class stadiums that recently hosted football's biggest global event.
