Gabriel Agbonlahor, a former captain of Aston Villa, has urged the FA to ban Manchester United’s Cristiano Ronaldo from participating in this weekend’s Manchester Premier League derby because of what he did to an Everton fan last season.
After Man United’s 1-0 loss to Everton in April of this year, Ronaldo knocked a 14-year-old Everton fan’s phone to the ground.
The FA last week described his actions as “violent,” and Agbonlahor thinks the Portugal captain should receive a suspension as a result.
Speaking to Football Insider, Agbonlahor said, “It was a bit ridiculous. Ronaldo, you can’t take a fan’s phone like that, it’s not on. I feel he should get a ban.
“I feel like a fine doesn’t matter to someone like Ronaldo, it’s not an issue. He’ll learn from that and know that he won’t be able to do it again.”
