HomeRegistrationsMany Happy Returns Cristiano Ronaldo! Jayne Henry February 2, 2018 Registrations We’re sending our birthday wishes to Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro, who of course we know best as simply Cristiano Ronaldo. Cristiano is a Portuguese footballer who has become famous all over the world, playing for his country, Real Madrid and of course he played for Manchester United too. He’s achieved a lot in his career so far. He’s the only European player to ever win five Ballon d’Or awards and he’s the only player ever to win four European Golden Shoes. In 2016 and 2017 he was the highest paid athlete in the world. That’s not bad for a boy who had surgery for a heart condition when he was in his teens! He’s spent his whole life playing football, first being signed at age 12, then convincing his mother to let him leave school at 14 to concentrate on his football career. I imagine that was a difficult decision to make, but it certainly turned out to be the right one! Top Ten Cristiano Ronaldo Facts! He was named after Ronald Reagan who was his dad’s favourite actor. His childhood nickname was Cry Baby because he used to cry when he passed the ball to a team member and they didn’t score. He was once expelled from school for throwing a chair at a teacher. He owns fashion boutiques called CR7 (his initials and his shirt number). He has a son named Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. You can visit a wax version of Cristiano at Madame Tussauds in London. Take a trip to Funchal in Portugal and you can visit the Museu CR7, a whole museum dedicated to him! He even has his own iPhone game – Heads Up with Cristiano. Research in 2012 showed that if you search for Cristiano Ronaldo on the Internet, you’re more likely to end up at an unsafe website than if you searched for any other footballer. When Ronaldo jumps, he generates 5G of force. This means he can jump higher than the average NBA player. Looking for CRIS plates?
