Cristiano Ronaldo apology snubbed by mum of Everton fan as she rejects Manchester United invite

The 14-year-old boy allegedly assaulted by Cristiano Ronaldo in the aftermath of Manchester United's defeat to Everton on Saturday has declined the star’s offer for him to visit Old Trafford.

Ronaldo was filmed allegedly knocking a mobile phone out of the hand of a supporter at Goodison Park following United’s 1-0 defeat to Everton. United later confirmed they were looking into the incident.

Sarah Kelly, from Upton on Merseyside, said the phone belonged to her son Jake and claimed Ronaldo had "assaulted" him and bruised his hand by knocking the phone to the floor. The two had been sat in the Park End at Goodison Park for the game on Saturday.
