    Cristiano Ronaldo’s Career

    Sporting Lisbon

    Right now, Cristiano Ronaldo is a finished product. He can do almost everything on football pitch. But when he started at Sporting Lisbon, he was basically a small player who could dribble well. He was an out-and-out winger. The coach recognized his talents and quickly drafted him from B to A team before he was 18. In his debut game in Portuguese league, he scored two goals against Moreirense. Scouts from across the globe started singing his praises. But it was not until August 2003 that he actually grabbed the attention of the most influential sports personality at that time – Sir Alex Ferguson. When Sporting Lisbon beat Manchester United 3-1, and Cristiano’s talent were seen live, Sir Alex expedited his transfer to United.

    Manchester United

    Many believe that Cristiano Ronaldo was at his best when he was at Manchester United. His relationship with Sir Alex was extremely fruitful. The coach guided him in the right direction, helped him enhanced his physicality and hone his skills. But most importantly, he instilled a passion and the right attitude, which was actually decisive in the success of Cristiano Ronaldo.

    Cristiano Ronaldo jersey that he got at United was number 7, although he wanted 28. But it was a testament to his skills that he got this number, which was also worn by legends like Beckham. His first goal for United was a freekick against Portsmouth, and his last was also a freekick, but this time against their bitter rivals Manchester City. In between those two goals, he won several Premier League titles and the coveted Champions League in 2008. Ronaldo’s stock grew quickly at United and Real Madrid came calling in 2009.

    Real Madrid

    Ronaldo became a proper legend after his move to Real Madrid. Although he was successful at United, the move to Real Madrid gave him a real shot at Champions League, which he only won once with United. Also, his comparisons with Messi became a major talking point after his move to Madrid.

    Cristiano propelled Real Madrid to their first La Liga title in 4 years. But his biggest role was in helping Real complete the La Decima and adding 4 more champions league trophies to their cabinet. Despite his tremendous role in the success of Real Madrid, Cristiano was often criticized by the fans. The relationship between the club, the player and the fans always kept fluctuating. Unlike the sheer adulation he got at United, he was often criticized by fans when his levels dipped. Probably it was the reason why he decided to move to Juventus.

    Ballons d’Ors and European Golden Shoes

    Any discussion about Ronaldo won’t be complete without talking about his Ballons d’Ors achievements.
