Cristiano Ronaldo

Ronaldo is easily one of the flashy and most decorated soccer players out there. He was signed by Manchester United at the astonishingly young age of sixteen, at more than twelve million pounds for his services. He scored a record 42 goals for the franchise in 2008, making it one of ManU’s best seasons. The same year, he earned himself the FIFA World Player of the Year award, and was integral to steering Manchester United to three premier league titles. He moved to Real Madrid in 2009, when offered a stupendous amount £131 million. He has also won the Ballon D’Or and was named the UEFA Club Forward of the Year.
