Levante defender David Navarro has revealed that he has sent Cristiano Ronaldo a text message to apologise for elbowing him on Sunday.
Navarro caught the Real Madrid talisman with a stray elbow last weekend, cutting open the Portuguese forward and forcing him to leave the pitch complaining of dizzy spells.
The centre-back has since insisted that he meant no harm and admitted that he sent Ronaldo a text to say sorry.
He told Intereconomia that the text read: "I saw I really hurt you, I apologise."
Ronaldo gave Madrid the lead in Levante before being substituted in a crucial 2-1 victory for Jose Mourinho's side.
