Ronaldo’s YouTube channel has posted more than 40 pieces of content, covering a variety of topics related to him, from daily life, family, training and eating habits, to conversations with famous football figures.
Ronaldo said: “I had this idea for a long time, but only last year did I feel the need to open a channel. YouTube allows me to connect with millions of fans around the world in the same way, regardless of their age or where they come from. I want them to see how I train, my nutrition, my lifestyle, my conversations with friends, not just about football but also outside of it.
I personally want to share my moments outside of football, and that makes me think that opening a channel is the most appropriate time. Will the amount of content increase? That is for sure and also depends on the “requests” of the fans. I owe them this for their encouragement and companionship in my career.”
