Cristiano Ronaldo was born on February 5,
1985, in Funchal, Madeira, Portugal. Manchester
United paid 12 million to sign him in 2003 - a
record fee for a player of his age. In the 2004 FA
Cup Final, he scored Manchester's first three goals
and helped them capture the championship. In
2008, he set a franchise record for goals scored. In

equipment manager at a boy's club that Ronaldo
was first introduced to the game of soccer. By the
time he was 10 years old, he was already
recognized as a phenomenon - a kid who ate, slept
and drank the game. "All he wanted to do as a boy
was playing football," his godfather, Fernao Sousa,
recalled for British reporters, adding, "He loved the
game so much that he'd miss meals or escape out
his bedroom window with a ball when he was
supposed to be doing his homework."
By his early teens, Ronaldo's talent and
legend had grown considerably. After a stint with
Nacional da liha da Madeira, he signed with
Sporting Portugal in 2001. That same year, at the
tender age of 16, Ronaldo turned heads with a
impressing performance against Manchester United,
wowing even his opponents with his footwork and
deft skill. He made such an impression that a
number of United players asked their manager to try
and sign the young player. It wasn't long before the
club paid Ronaldo's team more than 12 million for
his services - a record fee for a player of his age.
