The New York Post reports that the Portuguese soccer star just dropped a cool $18.5 million on an apartment in New York City’s Trump Tower. Before Cristiano Ronaldo purchased it, the 2,500-square-foot pad belonged to Alessandro Proto — a business partner of Donald Trump’s.
Ronaldo’s new pad also includes two separate marble bathtubs, a dining area that overlooks Central Park, and a gourmet kitchen. The gaudy apartment was designed by Juan Pablo Molyneux, who is best known for the maximalism style you see here.
