It’s easy to forget how much Cristiano Ronaldo has changed since his early days at Manchester United.
Ronaldo spent six years at United between 2003 and 2009, during which time he went from a relatively unknown winger to one of the greatest players in Premier League history. It was during that first spell at Old Trafford that he won the first of his five Ballon d’Ors, before securing his move to Real Madrid where he went on to break countless records.
Having arrived at United for the first time nearly 20 years ago as a skinny teenager, the Portuguese ace has since moulded himself into one of the fittest and strongest players in the world. The 37-year-old has used his remarkable desire and will to win to become the best goalscorer of all time, as well as claim countless trophies throughout his career.
