Cristiano Ronaldo's private jet delayed after bodyguard involved in airport spat

One of Cristiano Ronaldo’s bodyguards has reportedly been involved in a Spanish airport spat said to have led to the intervention of police and a half-hour delay for the footballer’s £20m private jet.

Menorca's daily newspaper said the Manchester United forward's minder got upset about being asked to wait after making an airport scanner go off with his splinted finger as he went through a VIP passenger check.

The newspaper claimed the bodyguard had “raised his voice and gesticulated violently” before walking through the airport security arch without being searched despite warnings from security personnel they would call the police.
