Cristiano Ronaldo has been famous for his life before he was famous. For starters, he was not supposed to be born. His mother had financial issues. She already had three children and was unsure if she could afford another child. She knew that she did not have enough money to take care of four kids so she wanted to abort Ronaldo, but the doctor refused to assist his mother with this request. As he got older, his life got harder.
One day, when he was in the street, he saw a group of boys in the street playing with a ball. Ronaldo decided to join the boys. As a result, he got better. Ronaldo kept practicing and playing soccer. At the age of 11, he joined a soccer team.
In order to play with the team, Ronaldo had to go to Lisbon. However, his family could not travel with him because they did not have enough money. Luckily he was not alone since there were other boys on the team with him.
A McDonald’s restaurant was nearby and he would beg the worker named Edna for leftovers. As he got older, he would be able to do more things.
At the age of 15, he threw a chair at his teacher in an interview because he did not understand the Madeira language. Ronaldo was bullied at school for his language. His mom was alerted to what he was doing so she came to live with him.
From 2002-to 2003 he joined Sporting CP B 2003-2009 and made an entrance at Manchester United. His career was succeeding in 2018 and he got the biggest award of all time. He won the FIFA world cup for his team. Today he is famous as his name is worldwide. For short his fans call him CR7.
