Ronaldo Is Still The Best Finisher In The World – Roy Keane

Manchester United legend, Roy Keane has come out to insist that Cristiano Ronaldo is still the best finisher in the world. This is coming after the Portugal star hit 900 career goals, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, even if Ronaldo‘s lack of impact at Euro 2024 was an issue for most football fans, reaching 900 goals at his age is proof that he is still the best finisher in the world.

Keane added that putting the ball in good areas for the Portuguese striker will still resort to goals.

His words, “That was a bit of an issue. [Referring to his lack of impact at Euro 2024]. But (he’s reached) 900 goals. If you put the ball in those areas he’s still the best in the world.”

WOW.

Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro GOIH ComM is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a forward for and captains both Saudi Pro League club, Al Nassr and the Portugal national team.

Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro was born on 5 February 1985 in the São Pedro parish of Funchal, the capital of the Portuguese island of Madeira, and grew up in the nearby parish of Santo António. He is the fourth and youngest child of Maria Dolores dos Santos Viveiros da Aveiro, who worked as a cook in the hospitality industry and a cleaning woman, and José Dinis Aveiro, a municipal gardener at the Junta de Freguesia of Santo António and part-time kit man for football club Andorinha.

Ronaldo’s move to Manchester United was completed on 12 August 2003, too late for the 2003 FA Community Shield but in time for their game against Bolton Wanderers on the opening day of the 2003–04 season, and made him the first Portuguese player to sign for the club.

Ahead of the 2009–10 season, Ronaldo joined Real Madrid for a world record transfer fee at the time of £80 million (€94 million). His contract, which ran until 2015, was worth €11 million per year and contained a €1 billion buy-out clause.
