Footballer Cristiano Ronaldo has said that he plans to start watching 'Coronation Street' after discovering how popular the show is.

Speaking to The Sun, the Manchester United star said of the soap: "I promise I will watch it next time it is on and I am home."

"I didn't know what 'Coronation Street' was when I came here - actually I didn't know what it was for the first two years."

"I normally watch movies when I am relaxing at night, but if it really is that popular, I promise I will try and watch it the next time."

"If I do, maybe it will make me a real Manchester citizen. I will have to ask Wayne Rooney if he watches it, although I don't think he will admit it because it is a show mainly for women, right?"
