A beautiful diamond is formed under great pressure. Everyone in this world wants to be like a diamond. But most people who want to be a diamond do not want to be under pressure. Today we bring you about a superstar who was a diamond under such pressure. Cristiano Ronaldo, considered the king of football, is the protagonist of our story today.
You all know that football is the most popular sport in the world. Cristiano Ronaldo is arguably the greatest footballer the sport has ever produced. The awards, accolades, recognitions and popularity he has received confirm it well.
He was born on February 5, 1985, on the European island of Portugal. Born into a family of four siblings, Ronaldo's childhood was not a pleasant one. He has to start his life journey in the midst of many poverty. From infancy to the age of 15, he suffered from heart disease. Little Ronaldo's heartbeat was faster than the average person's. At the age of 15, he underwent surgery to reduce his abnormal heart rate.
Ronaldo's parents recognize that he has not been interested in education since he was a child. His passion was sports. Out of those, he chooses football. His father was a designer of clothes for football clubs, so you wanted your son to take the world forward as a talented footballer.
It didn't take long for Ronaldo to realize that success is not something we are born with and that it depends on his ability, talent, and commitment. Fifteen years later, he left his mother, father, and siblings to return to Gisborne, Portugal, to make his dream come true. He wanted to join a football team in Portugal and move on. Even the coaches at the time were amazed at his ability to control the football. It is at this stage that heart surgery is performed. After the operation, the doctor called him and told him to stop playing football. Because playing football can be life threatening. But no force was able to stop his journey to success.
He was able to represent the Portuguese under 15 team in 2001. He first represented Portugal at the 2003 FIFA World Cup. Ronaldo's father dies while playing this World Cup. No matter how sad he was, he devoted his whole life to fulfilling his father's dream. At the age of 21, the young Ronaldo will be able to lead the Portuguese football team under his leadership. Not only that, this super football player will be able to contribute to the famous football team MANCHESTER UNITED. He was later invited by the Spanish team REAL MADRID for a contract amount of 80 million pounds.
No one has won more awards on the field than he does. Cristiano Ronaldo holds the record for the most number of gold footage won by a footballer at the end of a World Cup. Cristiano Ronaldo is also the only Portuguese player to score in all four World Cups.
According to foreign media reports, the current assets of Cristiano Ronaldo are close to 500 million US dollars. He earns close to 108 million US dollars annually. Not only that, he is a great generous person who contributes to any disaster in the world. He will set up a separate fund to rebuild Indonesia, which was devastated by the 2004 tsunami. He also sold the Gold Shoe of The Best Footballer of The Year in 2011 for nearly 2 million dollars and uses the proceeds to provide the facilities needed for schools in Gaza.
