Portugal: There are truckloads of videos tracing Cristaino Ronaldo’s journey from Sporting Lisbon to Real Madrid via Manchester United. And going by his phenomenal run at the Spanish giants, it is given that thousands of more such videos are going to emerge.
While he is certainly one of the footballing legends, there are not too many videos on offer documenting how he played when he was young.
However, the following video featuring a 16-year-old Ronaldo would definitely give us a glimpse of how he started to rise through the ranks to reach where he is today.
While things have drastically changed (for better) since he took to professional football, one aspect has remained the same: he was menacing then and he remains menacing now.
