A highly talented, hardworking and ambitious superstar, Cristiano Ronaldo has been a winner throughout his football career, just as we all witnessed during his time at Manchester United and Real Madrid.

The attacker had prolific campaigns in both the Premier League and the Spanish La Liga, winning the top scorer prize in both divisions and he is well on track to do the same in the Serie A, thanks to his incredible efforts in front of goal so far this season.

If he succeeds in winning the coveted prize in the Italian top flight, he will become the first player in the history of the game to win the honor across the Premier League, the La Liga and the Serie A. He is currently occupying the first position in the goalscoring chart at the moment with 17 goals to his name and all eyes will be on him to claim the accolade come the end of the term.
