THE BACKGROUND

Career and background

Born in Funchal, Madeira, Ronaldo spent nine seasons at Real Madrid between 2009 and 2018. He became the club’s leading scorer and won four Champions League titles, two Spanish league titles and two Copas del Rey during that spell. His 17 goals in the 2013–14 Champions League campaign set a competition record.Sources: Real Madrid ↗ · UEFA ↗

Ronaldo also captained Portugal to the country’s first major international trophy at EURO 2016. An injury forced him off during the final, but Portugal beat hosts France 1–0 after extra time through Éder’s goal.Source: UEFA ↗

Save the Children appointed Ronaldo a Global Artist Ambassador in January 2013. The organisation said his role would draw attention to child hunger and nutrition, alongside encouraging children to be active. In its announcement, Ronaldo connected the work to his own experience as a father.Source: Save the Children ↗
