A real poker player: Football is not the only sport Cristiano Ronaldo loves, he often tests his mental strength in this intellectual sport in his spare time. Currently, the Portuguese superstar is the face of the PokerStars website.
The most impressive welcome: In 2009, 80,000 fans were at the Bernabeu just to see Cristiano Ronaldo don the white shirt of Real Madrid for the first time. This is an attraction that no player in the history of world football has done. The previous record belonged to the legendary Diego Maradona when he launched his new club Napoli in 1984 in front of 74,000 spectators.
Special fan: Ronaldo is probably the only footballer to receive a compliment from “Terminator” Arnold Schwarzenegger. “Cristiano has an admirable body. His muscles are amazing,” the former American bodybuilder shared about CR7.
The name is named after the US president: The full name of the Portuguese superstar is “Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro”. In it, Ronaldo was inspired by Ronald Wilson Reagan – the 40th president of the United States. “My parents liked this name because it evoked a strong, masculine look,” CR7 revealed at a recent event.
Almost retired at the age of 15: In 2000, Ronaldo suffered some heart-related problems every time he ran too fast. Even the doctors advised him to quit football. Fortunately, CR7 did not follow the advice of this doctor. This year is 32 years old and Ronaldo is always in the top 10 fastest players on the planet (33.6 km/h).
An individual student: “I was expelled from school for throwing a chair at the teacher. He did not respect me,” Ronaldo revealed.
