Cristiano Ronaldo has already been forced to move mansions after returning to Manchester.

The 36-year-old, who returned to Old Trafford after 12 years at the end of the summer transfer window, moved into a £6 million property situated in 23 acres of sprawling countryside.

The seven-bedroom home appeared to be ideal for Ronaldo and his young family.

His partner Georgina Rodriguez recently uploaded a photo of the family’s four children walking about in the surrounding fields near some sheep.

Ronaldo family move house because of the sheep

But The Sun have exclusively revealed that these pesky sheep have forced Ronaldo to move his family into another seven-bedroom mansion.

Why? Because they were being too noisy.

The ultra-professional Ronaldo puts huge emphasis on getting sufficient rest between matches, but the sheep were bleating too loudly and kept waking up the five-time Ballon d’Or winner.

Some people call him the GOAT but poor Cristiano had no answer for the local flock of sheep.

A source told the tabloid: “While the property is beautiful and is nestled in rolling fields and woodland, it was also close to sheep which are very noisy early in the morning.

“It had a public footpath across the land and the road at the front gave a view inside its gates.

“Ronaldo is a true pro who places a lot on rest and recovery after games, so it was decided it was best if he and his family moved.”

Where does Cristiano Ronaldo live now?

The Ronaldo clan have moved into a luxurious £3 million property in Cheshire.

It reportedly features a pool, cinema room and a four-car garage, while CCTV cameras and electric gates - as well as guards - provide security.

“Ronaldo lived close by during his previous stint so it feels like home,” the source added.

“His kids are in a private school and he hopes that once the buzz of his return to United dies down, he can take Georgina out and show her his favourite local spots.”

Ronaldo has hit the ground running after rejoining the Red Devils from Juventus.

The world-class forward scored two goals on his debut against Newcastle last weekend before opening the scoring in United’s shock 2-1 defeat to Young Boys on Tuesday night.

Now free from noisy sheep, Ronaldo will be aiming to further increase his tally when United take on West Ham this weekend.
