That sweet little boy in the photo is now one of the most famous men in the world.

Goalscoring records, trophies galore, Ballon d’Or awards galore… Ronaldo transforms every match into a showcase of his talent, but also of his rigor. Behind the scenes, the man follows an iron discipline: training, diet, sleep, everything is meticulously measured. Because behind the genius hides a hard worker.

A model of resilience and ambition

Now 40 years old, Ronaldo has lost none of his aura. He has scored over 900 official goals, a historic record, and proudly played for Portugal over 220 times. But beyond the numbers, he has become a true symbol of inspiration. Because what fascinates as much as his sporting achievements is his human trajectory: that of a vulnerable child who became a global icon.

On social media, he’s also breaking all records: more than a billion cumulative followers, an influence that extends far beyond sport. He’s been named the world’s highest-paid athlete several times, proof that his name resonates far beyond the playing field.
