Cristiano Ronaldo is an award-winning professional footballer who plays as a forward for Manchester United in the Premier League. He is widely considered one of the best players in the world due to his multiple awards and championships, including his five Ballon d'Or awards, four European Golden Shoes, and over 32 trophies throughout his career. Moreover, the Portuguese football star has scored over 800 goals and has made over a thousand career appearances. 

Ronaldo started with Manchester United in 2003 at the age of 18, where he would go on to win FIFA Club World Cup a few years later and three consecutive Premier Leagues titles before leaving for Real Madrid in 2009. From 2009 until 2018, Ronaldo won 15 trophies with Real Madrid and earned a transfer offer to the team for 80 million Euros.

For a brief period, Ronaldo signed with Juventus at the age of 30 before returning to Manchester United in 2021. In Portugal, he began leading the nation's team in 2008 and brought them to victory at the Euro 2016 tournament. Ronaldo is one of the leading earners in the sports world and is widely considered one of the greatest players of his generation. 

However, despite his widespread career success, reports have circulated that Ronald is not satisfied with his current deal at United and is looking to transfer to another team once again.
