Cristiano Ronaldo & His Parents Then vs Now | The Family Behind CR7

Before the world knew CR7, Cristiano Ronaldo was the youngest son of a working-class family in Madeira. His father, José Dinis Aveiro, brought football close to him through his work at Andorinha. His mother, Maria Dolores, carried the family through financial struggles and supported the dream that eventually took Cristiano away from home. When Ronaldo left Madeira for Sporting, his parents made one of the hardest decisions of their lives. Years later, his father passed away just as Cristiano was beginning his rise toward global fame. This video follows Cristiano and his parents through the sacrifices, separation, loss, and determination behind one of football’s greatest careers. Before the trophies came the sacrifices. Before CR7 came the Aveiro family.
