Is Cristiano Ronaldo the best soccer ⚽️ player in history? 🤔

This blog would not be complete without a section regarding Cristiano Ronaldo, one of the most dedicated athletes in the world.

Better known as CR7, Cristiano is one of the most outstanding soccer players of recent times, capable of destroying records imposed decades ago and demonstrating every weekend why he is so popular among fans. 

Ronaldo is also known as "The Commander" thanks to a speech by former FIFA president Joseph Blatter, where he mentions that Messi is a charismatic footballer unlike Cristiano, who plays a rigid and calculated football. Ronaldo is today, at more than 35 years old, one of the most popular athletes in the world, according to the number of followers on his Instagram account. 


CR7 began his professional career at Sporting Lisboan, in his native Portugal, where he had a good debut season, attracting attention during a friendly match by the then Manchester United technical director, the legendary Sir Alex Ferguson, who immediately requested his hiring regardless of the youth of Ronaldo and the high cost requested for a player of that age at that time, an 18 years old player for $15 million dollars. He scored 25 goals in the 2002-2003 season for Sporting Lisboan team.

During his stay at Manchester United he won a large number of trophies that led him to be considered the best player in the English Premier League and for that reason, in 2009 Real Madrid of Spain broke the transfer record in his signing paying approximately $94 million dollars. Cristiano Ronaldo scored 196 goals between the 2003-2009 seasons for Manchester United.


Cristiano was a Real Madrid footballer for 9 impressive years in which he won 4 UEFA Champions Leagues, Spanish leagues, King's Cups, Pichichis, Club World Cups and several Golden Balls, among other awards. The commander scored 292 goals for Real Madrid between the 2009-2018 seasons becoming the top scorer at the club in its history.

The departure of Real Madrid was caused by several differences with the directors of the club and his next team was Juventus of Italy where he also won several Italian leagues, cups, and established himself as the top scorer in the competition. 


He scored 81 goals for Juventus between 2018-2022 before he decided to go back to Manchester United where he currently plays. 

In 2016 Cristiano Ronaldo won the European Championship with Portugal, consolidating himself as a benchmark not only at club level, but also in national teams. 

CR7 is by the way, the highest scorer in the history of Portugal as well as the all time scorer in professional soccer with more than 800 goals.
