Football fans were left with their jaws on the floor when a trio of very famous faces rocked up at a Dubai restaurant for dinner.

Leading the pack was superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, who took a table at Zuma Dubai last night (Tuesday, December 29), according to a representative of the DIFC dining hotspot.

The Real Madrid forward was joined at the Japanese eatery by Juventus left-back Patrice Evra and AC Milan manager Filippo Inzaghi.

Best of all, it is understood the trio will be sticking around to see in the New Year. They join a slew of other celebrities already in the UAE for the holiday season, including singer Selena Gomez, model Kendal Jenner and reality TV stars Bill and Giuliana Rancic.
