From the author of the bestselling Torres and Messi, a revealing new biography of Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo. When a young Portuguese player with sublime abilities arrived at Manchester United in 2003, Alex Ferguson put the no. 7 shirt - once worn by Best, Cantona and Beckham - on his back without hesitation. The expectation was clear, and Cristiano Ronaldo didn't disappoint. Ronaldo won the FIFA World Footballer of the Year in 2008, the first Premier League player ever to do so. Since his record-breaking GBP80m move to Real Madrid, his goal-scoring flair has continued and made his on-going rivalry with Barcelona's Lionel Messi even more intense. Luca Caioli tells the inside story of this global superstar both on and off the pitch, unveiling the life of one of modern football's great players as never before.

Great for an understanding of how Cristiano Ronaldo became the man that he is. This book reveals his character and the side you don't see on the pitch.

For the same teacher of English.
English language books are, for teachers, rather expensive in Belarus, hence me buying the book as another late Christmas present for her.

very average - not much insight
could've been written by anyone, who collected information from the media, rather than insight from people who would have more knowledge.

Good
The book was for the school library. It was for a student in KS3 who prefers football rather than reading.
