When twelve-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo left Madeira with a suitcase and a heart full of fury, they mocked his accent, called him a crybaby, and gave him almost no chance. He answered with nine hundred goals and counting.
In this Scouted! book, you'll travel from the steep cobblestone streets of Funchal to the roaring nights of Old Trafford and the Santiago Bernabéu. You'll meet the boy who stopped a bus, the man who made Juventus fans applaud their own defeat, and the injured captain who coached a European Championship final from the sideline.
Three characters guide you through Ronaldo's story: Enzo Gatto, the veteran scout who narrates with warmth and humor; Professor Soccerologist, who brings real data charts and career statistics; and Nina Cruz, the skills coach who breaks down the science behind Ronaldo's moves. Inside: 12 chapters, real Data Lab charts, illustrations, and a glossary.
This is an unofficial biography for young readers. It is not endorsed by or affiliated with Cristiano Ronaldo, or any club or organization mentioned in the book.
