Cristiano Ronaldo did his military service in Colombia?

In Portugal, the Military Service was abolished in 2003, at which time Cristiano Ronaldo was 18 years old, so it was no longer necessary for him to carry out the process in his country; However, this was not an impediment for his photograph to appear in the military notebook issued by the Colombian Army for the youth of the South American nation.

Incredible as it may seem, the young Diego Godoy received his military notebook officially issued by the Colombian Armed Forces with the image of CR7 during his time at Real Madrid instead of his.

Godoy Vidal shared the legally valid document with the photo of Cristiano Ronaldo on his social networks and detailed how the process was to obtain the military booklet, which has a high cost and a long bureaucratic process to obtain.

In Colombia, Military Service is compulsory for young people over the age of 18, but it can be avoided by paying 1.6 million Colombian pesos, approximately US$333, an amount that is extremely high for many young Colombians.

The Colombian Army blamed him for uploading photos of CR7

In the case of Diego Godoy, he says that in 2022 he approached the recruitment unit to do the process with a discount, but after three months he was surprised that the military issued the document with the image of Cristiano Ronaldo, so you tried to find a solution to your problem without receiving a response.
