A Post reporter saw Ronaldo arriving at the CR7 Life Museum in K11 Musea shopping centre at 8.30pm on Sunday, with fans crowding the entrance and cheering as they spotted him touring the venue.
The star player briefly stepped out and appeared ready to sign jerseys handed to him, but shook his head and retreated after some fans pushed at the barricade. He left about half an hour later.
The museum was launched last month to celebrate the football superstar’s career.
Dozens of fans arrived as early as 1pm, as rumours of his appearance swirled online. They included a Jiangxi visitor, who only identified himself as Gan. He said he had come to Hong Kong for the Saudi Cup and would stay until the finals on Saturday.

“If we get to see him, that would be even better, but if not, there’s nothing we can do. They never said for sure that he would come … unlike Messi the last time, when everyone said he was going to play but he didn’t in the end,” he said.
