The Real Madrid star says that he always aspired to be like the Portugal internationals of his youth but has no particular idol greater than himself as he pushes to be the best
EXTRA TIME
Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo has revealed his primary source of inspiration in his quest to be the best player in the world... himself!
The 30-year-old has won the Ballon d'Or three times but says that he never needed to model himself on any particular idol growing up, beyond his single-minded desire to play for the Portugal national team.
"Most of the time, I inspired myself," Ronaldo told Unscriptd . "I'm self-motivated.
