1 Not many people know this, but Cristiano Ronaldo was the first ever Portugal player to play for Manchester United
2 Cristiano is a known Fashionisto. Along with his two sisters, Ronaldo opened up the fashion boutique CR7 in Portugal
3 Ronaldo was nicknamed "cry-baby" as a child. His mother Dolores Aveiro said: "When he got home from school I'd tell him to do homework but he'd say he didn't have any. I'd be making dinner and he would jump out of the window and run off until late. He used to cry when he passed and his friends didn't score. People called him 'cry-baby' and 'little bee' because nobody could catch him."
4 As a teenager Ronaldo would train in the gym using weights on either foot and then dribbling with the ball. He thought it would improve his technique because without weights he would be even faster.
5 Ronaldo has oft-been quoted as saying, “I know I'm the best”
6 Cristiano remains with his girlfriend, Russian model, Irina Shayk.
7 Being a sports idol has its privileges—like you get a wax replica made of you. Two days before Ronny played in the World Cup this June he was immortalized in wax at the famed Madame Toussaud's in Londo
