“I am sad that my father could not see what I have accomplished in my life.”
Everyone wishes to make their parents proud. It’s a way to show them gratitude for everything they have brought to us as children. Football players are no exception, let alone Cristiano Ronaldo!
The Portuguese has always been very close to his parents and especially to his father, José Dinis Aveiro. And already at a very young age, he expressed his desire for greatness to his father, telling him that one day, he would live in a house like Michael Jackson’s house. Amused, his father explained to him that dreams are only dreams and that it would be impossible for him.
Determined to keep that promise, CR7 gave absolutely everything he had to become a professional football player. And considering all he’s accomplished in his illustrious career, there’s no doubt that from up there, his father must be very proud of his son.
