The definitive award-winning biography of Cristiano Ronaldo - fully updated to include the 2022 World Cup, Ronaldo's explosive exit from Manchester United and his record-breaking transfer to Al-Nassr As the Qatar World Cup opened to worldwide jubilation, Cristiano Ronaldo's second spell at Manchester United reached an abrupt conclusion. It was not to be the fairy tale ending to a glittering career. Instead, over the two seasons, it had snowballed into a toxic standoff between himself, the board and newly appointed manager, Erik ten Hag. The Theatre's dream was over. On 22 November 2022, Ronaldo's contract was terminated. In this compelling account, Guillem Balagué draws on impeccable sources, first-hand interviews and unprecedented access, taking us on a journey from Madeira to Manchester, and onto Spain, Italy and Saudi Arabia. From Ronaldo's tutelage under Sir Alex Ferguson to becoming the biggest galáctico of them all at Real Madrid, and captaining Portugal to the first silverware in their history at the UEFA Euro 2016, Guillem chronicles Ronaldo's career in its entirety. This is nothing less than the definitive portrait of a true icon of modern football, who has reached the very heights of the beautiful game and cemented his place as one of the greatest players of all time.

A marvellous read!
Everyone knows about Ronaldo and what an amazing player he is. This book just shows all the hardwork and the pain behind the making of one of the greatest players of this generation. Guillem Balague goes through every minute detail to know how Cristiano Ronaldo became the player we all know and appreciate today. A marverllous read for anyone who appreciates hardwork and pains in all spheres of life. A must read. Kudos Guillem!

Great for following Cristiano's journey
The author seems to have a bit of a negative bias against Cristiano and his achievements which shows up in his writing where he places his own opinions. Although I must say this is as neutral of an account that you will find of the rare biographies about Cristiano. I wish there was a deeper look into how his teammates and coaches felt about him in one-on-one interviews between the author and the people. It's a nice read but not a must read by any means. I stand to be corrected when I say Cristiano did not authorise this so you do not get any history or context from Crisitano which would have been a nice touch even if it were self-inflated for his own ego. This would've helped us know him a bit more. I await a Ronaldo vs the people vs neutral author account. Will a documentary produced by Amazon or Netflix in a few years be better and more engaging than this book? Probably.
