Ronaldo | Real Madrid
The 28 year old's
goal record for Spanish giants Real Madrid is nothing short of phenomenal.
Averaging more than a goal a game with 197 strikes in 195 matches. Despite Los
Blancos being knocked out of the Champions League semi final by Borussia
Dortmund, Ronaldo remains the competition's top scorer this season with 12
goals.
He continues to
have an ongoing rivalry with Lionel Messi for world's best player and although
it is the Argentine forward that usually comes out on top, the Portuguese winger
is certainly not far behind. He received the Ballon d'Or award during his
playing days with Manchester United and has been voted Portuguese footballer of
the year on the last eight occasions.
Need I mention that
Ronaldo is the most expensive player in history following an £80 million from Old Trafford to the Santiago Bernabeu.
His 60 league goals for Los Blancos last season helped him to a first La Liga
trophy and although Barcelona look set to regain the league title this year,
Ronaldo's Real will be hungry for success once again next term.
