With Cristiano Ronaldo's engagement with long-time girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez gaining plenty of spotlight, a morphed picture of the footballer's former teammate Alejandro Garnacho's has gone viral. According to a picture going viral on X, Garnacho reacted with two heartbreak emojis on Rodriguez's Instagram post but it's strongly believed to be a fabricated image.
On August 11, 2025, Rodriguez, an Argentinian model and entrepreneur announced her engagement with the 40-year-old Portuguese footballer. She flaunted a massive ring and wrote on Instagram in Spanish, 'Sí, quiero. En esta y en todas mis vidas.' It translates to 'Yes, I do. In this life and in all my lives.'
With Garnacho playing with Ronaldo for a brief while in Manchester United, the below picture on X has gone viral:
A couple of users on X pointed out the flaw in the morphed picture as the word 'Author' was written against his name.
"I’m not focused on the numbers" - Alejandro Garnacho played down comparisons with Cristiano Ronaldo
With Garnacho citing Ronaldo as his idol on plenty of occasions, he played down comparisons with the legend in May. The comparison arose when his goal against Brentford took him to 24, one lesser than matching Ronaldo for United before turning 21. The youngster had stated, as quoted by manutd.com:
"I’m not focused on the numbers. I think when Cristiano played here, he was a different footballer, [they were] a different type of games. I just try to help the team and try to win games."
The Portuguese footballer played for Manchester United in two stints one from 2003 to 2009 and second from 2021-2022. Ronaldo's first stint with the decorated club saw him net 84 goals in 196 appearances. He has been playing for Al Nassr since 2023.
