Description
2003 Panini Mega Craques Cristiano Ronaldo Rookie #137 PSA Gem Mint 10. A quintessential rags to riches story, Cristiano Ronaldo was born into an impoverished Catholic family, sharing a single room with his three siblings. With his mother's blessing, he left school at 14 to focus full time on football, a decision that would pay off in spades. By 16, Ronaldo had joined Sporting CP's youth team and subsequently became the first person to play for the club's under-16, under-17, and under-18 teams, the B team and the first team all within a single season.After Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson got a good look at Ronaldo during a 3-1 defeat against Sporting, he was determined to acquire the rising star referring to him as "one of the most exciting young players" he had ever seen. During his time in Manchester, Ronaldo blossomed into a bonafide superstar. Simultaneously rising through the ranks on the national team to become Portugal's captain.
Often regarded as the best player in the world and one of the greatest players of all time, Ronaldo's list of accolades and records is as long and impressive as one might expect. With seven league titles, five Ballon d'Or awards, four European Golden Shoes and the records for most appearances (183), goals (140) and assists (42) in the Champions League as well as international goals (117) and international appearances by a European (189). Our offered card is widely regarded as the rookie debut of one of the greatest athletes of any era in sports history. Graded PSA Gem Mint 10.
