I think he would be a funny guy... Great👍
When Cristiano Ronaldo wanted to become a fisherman!
What would have happened if Cristiano Ronaldo had never left Madeira, his Portuguese island, for his football career? According to the Portuguese star it is very likely that he would have ended up on a fishing boat. That's one of the main activities in Madeira.
Far from the frenetic rhythm he follows to beat records and win trophies, Ronaldo considered earning a living by fishing.
"At 35? When I was younger, I thought that at this age, I'd be a fisherman in Madeira."
Even if the 35-year-old player has never hidden his ambition or his love for football, he also hasn't hidden his passion for this activity on social media!
The Portuguese star also hasn't forgotten his difficult youth and the poverty he lived in. For Ronaldo, someone who had to beg for food to get enough to eat, the chances of him having an amazing future were very slim. And given that fishing is the main activity on his native island, that's why he saw himself as a fisherman!
Cristiano Ronaldo definitely made the best choice of his life by putting on a pair of football boots, but he hasn't forgotten where he comes from, or his traditions! 🎣
