“Queen Elizabeth asked for 80 CR7 jerseys”. The tweet goes viral, but it’s a hoax

Social insane in the UK over a bizarre piece of news, which later turned out to be false. The Sport Innovation Society has released the news that Queen Elizabeth has requested 80 Manchester United jerseys with the number 7 of Cristiano Ronaldo, specifying that they also want to keep a shirt signed by the player himself, a few days ago returned to the Red Devils after the farewell to Juventus.

The indiscretion was immediately re-launched by the Daily Express, which cited the tweet published by the English company, triggering a ripple effect that involved the CR7 social fanbase.

Queen Elizabeth has personally requested that #mufc reserve the first shirt to be signed by Cristiano Ronaldo, meaning Ronaldo becomes the only human being Queen Elizabeth has asked for an autograph. [@sis] pic.twitter.com/UaaQ9VX43a
