Proud Portugal
Ronaldo created history when he signed for Manchester United, becoming the first Portuguese player on the team and the most valuable teenage transfer cost in English football history at £12.24 million (nearly $16.5 million). Ronaldo was part of the team for the 2003-04 season, and his transfer fee paid off when he scored the team’s first goal in the 2004 FA Cup final, assisting them in winning the title. He proceeded to win three Premier League titles with the club. And Ronaldo was ready to make history by breaking yet another sporting record.
