Everton SNUBBED £2m Ronaldo transfer in 2002 to keep faith in Wayne Rooney

EVERTON snubbed the chance to sign Cristiano Ronaldo for just £2million in 2002.

The Portuguese superstar hadn’t made his big breakthrough at Sporting Lisbon just yet, but a host of teams were aware of his talent.

A new book – entitled ‘Messi vs Ronaldo’ – reveals that the latter could have found himself at Goodison Park.

The winger was offered to the Toffees for just £2m around 20 years ago.

But Everton were focused on developing another special teenager instead.
