Cristiano Ronaldo is an international star and he's getting a lot of attention from media these days as he's a subject of an alleged negotiation between Juventus and Real Madrid to bring the champion to Turin. However, it seems that CR7 is also getting great attention from Facebook, as company's CEO Mark Zuckerberg would be in talks with the Portuguese football star to make a TV series or a Reality Show.

Facebook wants to use the Portuguese footballer as the main content of its on-demand video platform, Facebook Watch, similar to Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. Surely a character like Ronaldo could prove a viewer magnet, but at the moment it's still not clear what kind of program will be involved, perhaps a series of TV episodes or even a Reality Show. Surely, it will be a very expensive production, as reported by Variety.

Would you be interested in watching some sort of CR7 related show?
