Ronaldo reacts to winning Ballon d’Or of All Time
In a post on X on Thursday, Ronaldo thanked football fans for voting for him to win the award.
“Football belongs to the fans! Thank you to all the fans around the world, the Ballon D’Or of All Time is also yours,” Ronaldo said.
Recall that Ronaldo’s 2008 Ballon d’Or-winning season was voted the best in the history of the award.
A public poll was recently organised to celebrate the award’s 70th anniversary.
The vote asked fans to choose their favourite Ballon d’Or-winning season and Ronaldo finished in first position.
Ronaldo’s eternal rival, Lionel Messi’s 2012 season finished second.
