A well-deserved tribute to Real Madrid
To commemorate the nine seasons he spent with Real Madrid, Ronaldo posted a photo on Instagram, where he is seen lifting the Champions League trophy in 2016. In the caption, he wrote: “123 years of Real! Congratulations to the entire Madridista family! Hala Madrid!”
It is clear that he left the team, but he will always carry it in his heart. And rightly so, as the star forward managed to score 451 goals in 438 matches with Real Madrid. This achievement made him the top scorer in the club’s history.
To top it off, Cristiano was LaLiga’s top scorer (Pichichi) three times and won four Golden Shoes. This was thanks to his outstanding physical condition, winning mentality, and exceptional football skills. This perfect combination of qualities made him a global icon.
Among Cristiano Ronaldo’s greatest legacies is the impact he had on the Champions League. With Real Madrid, he won the trophy three consecutive times, from 2016 to 2018.
In 2018, Cristiano made the decision to leave the team to join Juventus, in Italy’s first division. This departure left a huge void in the club, but he will always carry it in his heart as a very special part of his professional career.
