In a bold move that instantly set the internet on fire, Tesla CEO Elon Musk has reportedly offered football megastar Cristiano Ronaldo a jaw-dropping $100 million deal to become the face of the Tesla Cybertruck. But what has truly stunned fans and analysts alike isn’t the massive sum – it’s Ronaldo’s unexpected response.
According to a leak from a source close to the negotiations, the proposal was part of an ambitious global marketing campaign for the Cybertruck’s official worldwide release this summer. Tesla is aiming to reposition the Cybertruck not just as a futuristic vehicle, but as a symbol of elite performance, power, and influence — qualities that align perfectly with the image of Cristiano Ronaldo.
“Ronaldo was at the top of our list,” said a Tesla insider. “His global reach, unmatched athleticism, and lifestyle are everything the Cybertruck represents.”
However, in a move that no one saw coming, Cristiano Ronaldo reportedly declined the offer.
Sources suggest that while Ronaldo was flattered by the proposal, he turned it down for personal and strategic reasons. “Cristiano is extremely selective when it comes to brand partnerships,” one insider close to the athlete revealed. “He doesn’t just endorse products — he becomes deeply involved. And in this case, he wasn’t fully aligned with the Cybertruck’s image.”
This decision shocked millions of fans around the world, especially considering Ronaldo’s history of working with high-profile luxury brands like Nike, Armani, and TAG Heuer. Many believed a collaboration with Tesla was inevitable.
Social media platforms exploded with reactions. While some praised Ronaldo for his integrity and high standards, others questioned whether the decision was a missed opportunity to merge two global icons in a historic campaign.
