There are not so many players who are so famous on the football field and outside of it.
One of the players who belongs to that "club" is Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ronaldo started playing footbal at the age of 3.
His favourite team is Benfica although he played for a rival club, Sporting. He was famous in Portugal whan he was only 10 years old.
In 2003 he was transfered to Munchester United from Sporting. In Munchester he wore a jersey with number 7, which was a big motivation for him, but also put some pressure.He was the key player in United, where he played 196 games and scored 84 goals. Johan Cruyff said:
"Ronaldo is better than George Best and Denis Law, who were two brilliant and great players in history of United."
2008 was his lucky year, he was announced for the best player of Europe and won the Champions league with Manchester... And then he moved on. He went to Real Madrid and became the most expensive player in the history of this sport for a transfer which worthed 80 milion pounds.
On the stadium of Real Madrid he got his new jersey with number 9 in front of 80 000 supporters, which is another record that this magical winger and striker made.He also became a highscore goalscorer in Madrid for one season by scoring 53 goals. On UEFA EURO 2004 in Portugal he won a silver medal.
For national team he played 85 games and scored 30 goals. He has so many awards that we cannot name them. One is for sure, this brilliant 26-years-old is still surprising us by breaking the records, which were made by an enormous giants in history of football. And what is more important he is the player because of the people come to the stadiums and enjoy watching this beautiful game.
