Last month, the world of UFC collided with planet football when Cristiano Ronaldo met Conor McGregor in Las Vegas.
The two have quickly became pals, in fact they are so close that Ronaldo has apparently told McGregor some top secret information - that he has signed a new deal at the Bernabeu.
Madrid haven't confirmed this news, nor has CR7, so when the UFC Featherweight champion let slip that the deal has actually been signed, it was a downright exclusive from the unlikeliest of places.

If it's true of course...
McGregor was asked during a recent interview whether he would be able to catch the Portugal international in terms of the Rich List, which is released by Forbes.com every year.
The Irishman said, "Give me next year and I'll climb that Forbes list, I'll challenge him for the number one Forbes spot.
"He's up there and he said he just signed a new deal with Real Madrid, so it's going to be tough."
If Ronaldo has signed a new deal with Madrid, it will prove a massive boost for Zinedine Zidane who has struggled to make waves in the transfer market this summer.
