Nigerian music superstar Davido sparked laughter across social media during the dramatic Inter vs. Barcelona Champions League semi-final on Tuesday, May 6, 2025, with a hilarious story about his unforgettable football heartbreak, all thanks to Harry Maguire.
As the tension in the game soared, Davido tweeted, “Football ehn fit give person BP … I remember when CR7 personally invite me come watch match for Old Trafford then couple years ago … He don book dinner ALL! Party chillin etc …. Nah so dem go lose match .. BABA VEX GO HOUSE .. since that day I still never forgive Maguire.”
The Afrobeat icon revealed that Cristiano Ronaldo had once invited him to a Manchester United match at Old Trafford, complete with a full post-match celebration plan, including dinner and partying. But things didn’t quite go as expected.
Instead of a night of football glory and good vibes, Davido watched Ronaldo’s United lose the match, which apparently sent the Portuguese legend into silence and straight back home.
The mood shift was so intense that Davido jokingly claims he’s still holding a grudge, not against Ronaldo, but against Harry Maguire.
