Cristiano Ronaldo certainly has a winning attitude. The Portuguese striker has a legendary career that is driven by his motivation to win and succeed. Cristiano has shown on occasion his elite mentality to achieve the win for his team- usually by scoring himself. However recently, an interesting question was put forth to him on Saturday that made him choose between his personal goals and his team accolades.
Ronaldo was asked whether he would like to win the league title or to be the top scorer in the league? Cristiano had an impeccable answer to this question which showed his win-first mentality. “The most important thing for me is to win the titles!” said the ace striker.
He compared the situation of his club Al-Nassr, which finished 2nd in the league last year. He cited the example of Anderson Talisca, his teammate at Al Nassr, who finished as the top scorer in the league. “Last season if you asked Talisca the same things, then he would surely have told you that he wants to win titles and not be the top scorer. That’s what counts and that’s what I’ll fight for,” said Ronaldo.
Cristiano Ronaldo has rarely gone trophyless in his illustrious career. However, this has not been the case as silverware has eluded him at his second stint at his previous club, Manchester United, and even at Al Nassr as they failed to clinch the title. Ronaldo looks set for the next season as he aims to claim trophies at Al Nassr.

Cristiano Ronaldo invests in luxury watch seller
Cristiano Ronaldo, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner and football phenomenon from Portugal, has made an undisclosed investment in Chrono24. Chrono24 is a luxury watch reseller. Ronaldo invested an unknown sum of money in the business.
Ronaldo likes to wear pricey watches. His watch collection includes pieces from Rolex, Jacob & Co., Girard-Perregaux, and Franck Muller. “As a long-term watch collector and regular user of Chrono24, it’s a pleasure for me to become a shareholder in the company now,” Ronaldo said in a statement.
The deal signed with Ronaldo is an investment agreement rather than a marketing one. This certainly means that the star player from Portugal will not be involved in any advertisements for the brand. Ronaldo joins businessman and the owner of Luis Vuitton, Bernard Arnault on the list of shareholders of Chrono24.
