Hello guys!
Everybody knows him - CR7- Cristiano Ronaldo - this guy gained popularity by playing football. That’s of course true but we have to say more about it. In one interview he said: "Talent without work is NOTHING”.
"He isn’t football player, he is a robot” - one of his friends described him.
We can infer from these two sentences that he works everyday for a long time. He is a perfectionist. That’s why he deserved the life he lives.
But what about his career? Where did he play?
FIRST PLACE
Cristiano was born in Portugal. He started seriously playing football in a small club Sporting Lizbona.
BIG SUCCESS
One day, in a year 2003, Sporting played against Manchester United. Of course Ronaldo played in that match. Sir Alex Ferguson (known as the football dad of our starv- that’s exactly how Cristiano described him) decided to sign a contract with this young, 18 years old boy for 12 milion pounds. He also got a shirt with numer 7 (only legends had this number) so it was a big pressure but also a great opportunity for Ronaldo. He managed brilliantly, during 6 years of playing in Manchester he won: 3 England Championships, 2 League Cups, World club championship, 2 Community shields, UEFA Champions League and many individual awards.
NEW CHAPTER
In 2009 he changed club and went to Real Madrid for 80 mln pounds. He also won Euro 2016 with Portugal. In his journey with Real Madrid he added many titles to his collection.
NEXT STAGE
Juventus Turyn - he played 3 seasons there and then he came back to Manchester United. Unfortunately for him this return wasn’t successful, recently his contract was terminated and now he continues his adventure in the Arab club Al-Nassar. His seasonal salary is going to be 200 milion euros.
To sum up this guy is unbelievable. He won billion awards and in the age of 37 he still plays football and doesn’t plan to stop it!
absolutely agree!😀
