Gospel singer Tim Godfrey has written a heartwarming note to Portugal legend Cristiano Ronaldo. He recently had his say as the football icon considers retirement from international football, and fans have been reacting.
Describing Ronaldo as an absolute legend who shows up every day, Tim Godfrey appreciated the UCL winner being disciplined and dedicated while sharing his gift with the world.
The musician added that CR7 still won the World Cup despite losing the cup.
His words, “As far as I am concerned. Even without the cup, you won the world!
You are an absolute legend!
Thank you for showing up every day!
Thank you for teaching the world passion!
Thank you for your discipline, dedication, resilience, endurance, focus, courage, and winning mentality!
Thank you for sharing your gift to the world.
Thank you for being a blessing to us (Real Madrid).
If you are not MESSI here. Put a love emoji for the real GOAT!”
Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro GOIH ComM is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a forward for and captains both Saudi Pro League club, Al Nassr and the Portugal national team.
Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro was born on 5 February 1985 in the São Pedro parish of Funchal, the capital of the Portuguese island of Madeira, and grew up in the nearby parish of Santo António. He is the fourth and youngest child of Maria Dolores dos Santos Viveiros da Aveiro, who worked as a cook in the hospitality industry and a cleaning woman, and José Dinis Aveiro, a municipal gardener at the Junta de Freguesia of Santo António and part-time kit man for football club Andorinha.
Ronaldo’s move to Manchester United was completed on 12 August 2003, too late for the 2003 FA Community Shield but in time for their game against Bolton Wanderers on the opening day of the 2003–04 season, and made him the first Portuguese player to sign for the club.
Ahead of the 2009–10 season, Ronaldo joined Real Madrid for a world record transfer fee at the time of £80 million (€94 million). His contract, which ran until 2015, was worth €11 million per year and contained a €1 billion buy-out clause.
