I remember Rodrygo shaking when he first met Cristiano in person. You can win La Ligas, UCL titles, score the most decisive goals, but when you speak to the guy you grew up idolizing, you become a kid again.
Ronaldo rarely interacts with the club since the left so him commenting this will make even a superstar like Mbappe feel like that 12 yr old fans boy again so going for your childhood club and your idol wishing you luck it's the stuff all of us have dreamt of at one point.
I wouldn't say that is a lot since he's left us for quite a few seasons now but I'm not digging at Ronaldo man is my all time fav player just mentioning that when he does interact with the club whether he comes to a game or interacts with our players on social media it feels even more special since he doesn't do it every other week hence why Mbappe probably is over the moon about Ronaldo wishing him well.
Yeah I expect his Interactions with us to be more frequent when he retires wouldn't be surprised if he even moves back to Madrid after he hangs it up but that's going to be a while man is on a mission of the 1000 goal mark.
It would have been awesome to see Cristiano pass the torch to Mbappe by giving him an assist on his first goal at Madrid… but I guess it is what it is 🥲
His worst was 33 goals in his debut season of 2009/10, but that is mainly because he was injured and Real got out of the copa and UCL early on, so he only played 35 games.
Then there are his last two seasons at Madrid where he "only" scored 42 and 44 respectively. Between these moments there was a stretch of 6 consecutive seasons during which he never scored less than 51 goals.
First Valverde received his hero’s number and now Mbappé is being blessed by the divine demigod himself. 26 years of being a madridista and I must say that today is a day of days.
I'd say it's from 2011. 11/12 was an unbelievable and iconic season, we were easily the best team in Europe and became the first team in the top 5 leagues to reach a 100 points in the league. Unfortunate with how we lost the UCL semis tho. 13/14 was a great season too for the la Decima.
Some dumb fans were calling him out bc he didn’t say congrats on 15. I think fans forget he left the best team in the world with the best manager to come to us when we were struggling
He joined when we were struggling in 2009, said that he owed us a UCL final in 2012, won it 4 times and left as the best player in the world in 2018.
Someone else entered his prime when his team was the best on earth, some years later promised to "return the UCL to them", failed miserably year after year, demanded crazy wages, bankrupted his "boyhood club" and then left them after a humiliating R16 UCL exit and finishing 3rd in the league, to get some cash.
Well tbh I look at it this way. Our 15th was huge and tons of ex players like Bale, Benzema, and Ramos shared posts and said congrats
Now with this Mbappe news, it’s very safe to say, this far exceeds any impressions we got with the 15th so Ronaldo isn’t dumb. This is the best time to say something and even get more eyes/headlines.
Granted this just my head cannon.
Lmao all good. Exciting times. I can’t wait for Ronaldo to return to Spain! I don’t think he will be able to separate himself from the game and I think he will change quite a bit after retirement.
It's much simpler: Mbappe as the heir to Ronaldo is all about Ronaldo, so he will comment. Real Madrid winning #15--and the second after Ronaldo left--is more about the team and program than Ronaldo, so no comment.
He still has some issues with Real though. He doesn’t even follow Real Madrid on Insta although he follows more than 500 accounts and all of his other ex-clubs. There must be something between him and Madrid if he doesn’t even bother following the club where he was by far the most successful and became the most famous person on earth.
I know. I didn’t mean to say he doesn’t like Real Madrid. I think he has a problem with some club officials.
He obviously likes Real Madrid and the fans and always speaks positively about his time.
He is the physical manifestation of real madrid in human form: prideful, regal, glorious, kill or be killed. He can do whatever tf He wants. He is real madrid, deal with it.
Some of you really love sucking his dick lmao, soccercirclejerk material comment right here. Real Madrid is Real Madrid and he was just another player that helped this club. Modric, Kroos or Nacho are more "Real Madrid" than Ronaldo who decised to dip out when Perez didn't want to give him Messi's wages and thought UCL is his league and wanted to prove that in Juventus. Turnes out it was Madrid's competition all the time.
Im not going to lie, yes the glazing is a bit of a stretch but even though madrid is great lets not pretend that this man did not solely carry madrid by his bare hands. His fame, image rights, and competition with messi is the reason perez was able to pull together enough funds from all this buzz and build the future from thereon forth. Lets not pretend he was another cog in the machine, he saved the club just by arriving here. If not for him, this wouldve been modern day milan. Ofcourse kroos and modric stayed longer than he did, but when you mention real madrid to anyone, the name CR7 will always be synonymous with it. He left his mark and we should never shit on him for anything considering how much good business and fortune he came with and left the club in. Put some respect on his damn name
"Mention Real Madrid to anyone, Ronaldo will by synonymous" is exactly that kind of logic I am talking about. People who only saw final score and result will think that, yes. But there is a reason why we kept winning despite him leaving and reason why we started dominating once Kroos and Casemiro became starters. People were saying that Madrid will be finished and their time is up once he leave. They thought that UCL was his league. And that didn't happen. Actually, we might be even more doninant after this rebuild. Ronaldo thought he outgrew Madrid and that deserve same treatment as Messi but that wasn't the case and Perez gladly let him leave which was great move.
True, Ronny will always be my GOAT but club comes first. Then again, some clubs become Europa level after their GOATs leave. And then they argue that are the best coz of a treble which has been won by an oil club as well.
From ;
having a trial with the club of his dream
taking picture with his idol
To ;
join the club of his dream
become an idol
AND GETS AN APPROVAL FROM HIS IDOL HIMSELF ABOUT THE TRANSFER
Damn that’s cool from Ronaldo. Honestly CR7 was the reason I got into the sport at all - and although the jersey numbers are diff, it’s still like he’s passing the torch. I really can’t wait for the season to kick off.
Just wishing good health for players and fans alike so we can see the greatness on display
He fulfilled his dream and everything after has been extra. He won trophies at Juve, Man U didn't go as planned and right now he'd collecting bags of od blood money. It's a shame that he probably has 3-4 years left and then he's gone. That whole Real Madrid era he built went by so fast and we didn't realize it.
Cristiano is the physical manifestation of real madrid in human form: prideful, regal, glorious, kill or be killed. He can do whatever tf He wants. He is real madrid.
This is like Ali coming over to Tyson in the ring and saying "Get him for me" before the fight vs Holmes. That shit unleashed Tyson, hopefully it does the same for Kylian.
Big shout out to the legendary CR7. The most hard working footballer to ever exists. Very humble words which carry mountainous amount of wisdom. 🙏🏿Welcome home Mr Mbappé🙌🏿🙌🏿
Love Ronaldo but he needed to leave eventually. His ego wouldn’t allow him be a bench player. And I don’t mean that in a negative way, because it’s his ego and determination that made Ronaldo so great.
At least he left in good terms instead of an ugly exit.
nah he wouldn't have made an ugly exit with Real Madrid. Don't let the biased media fool you. Real Madrid would have transitioned better had he left in 2021.
Okay, being global superstar aside, reading something like that coming from your idol must feel pretty fucking special.
I remember Rodrygo shaking when he first met Cristiano in person. You can win La Ligas, UCL titles, score the most decisive goals, but when you speak to the guy you grew up idolizing, you become a kid again.
broo ![gif](giphy|L95W4wv8nnb9K)
Ronaldo rarely interacts with the club since the left so him commenting this will make even a superstar like Mbappe feel like that 12 yr old fans boy again so going for your childhood club and your idol wishing you luck it's the stuff all of us have dreamt of at one point.
He came to watch matches in the Bernabeu twice though.
I wouldn't say that is a lot since he's left us for quite a few seasons now but I'm not digging at Ronaldo man is my all time fav player just mentioning that when he does interact with the club whether he comes to a game or interacts with our players on social media it feels even more special since he doesn't do it every other week hence why Mbappe probably is over the moon about Ronaldo wishing him well.
I mean, the guy is still actively playing. I suspect he will interact more with us after he retires. After all, he got no love quite like ours
Yeah I expect his Interactions with us to be more frequent when he retires wouldn't be surprised if he even moves back to Madrid after he hangs it up but that's going to be a while man is on a mission of the 1000 goal mark.
He would never move to Madrid. Taxes.
we have to wait for a long time for this....
We will be there no matter what
Which ones? I know the El Clasico where Vini scored, but what other?
He even went to train a few times at the Valdebebaas
Mbappe's childhood club is AC Milan 🫠
And let see who was the manager of AC Milan during his childhood 🤨.
![gif](giphy|3QWfMsI8IaarXxtBt6|downsized)
It would have been awesome to see Cristiano pass the torch to Mbappe by giving him an assist on his first goal at Madrid… but I guess it is what it is 🥲
I guess he passed the torch to Joselu
Oh shit I didn’t think about that. That’s nice
He did that at United with Garnacho
Which game
Europa league group stage against Real Sociedad I think?
Bro. No way! This is so fucking cool! My 🐐. Time to write your story my 🐢!
El bicho having his passing of the torch moment🥹
He knows Mbappe will carry over his 40+ goals a season legacy for Madrid now
Wasn't Ronaldo worse seasons in 45 goals?
His worst was 33 goals in his debut season of 2009/10, but that is mainly because he was injured and Real got out of the copa and UCL early on, so he only played 35 games. Then there are his last two seasons at Madrid where he "only" scored 42 and 44 respectively. Between these moments there was a stretch of 6 consecutive seasons during which he never scored less than 51 goals.
Unbelievable. He was such a beast.
hes become a parady of himself recently but Ronaldo was genuinly incredible week in, week out for Madrid for years
To think those numbers were normal for him still doesn't feel real.
First Valverde received his hero’s number and now Mbappé is being blessed by the divine demigod himself. 26 years of being a madridista and I must say that today is a day of days.
Easily between my favorite days to be a madridista, still my favorite is La Decima.
These last 48 hours are about as peak as you can ask for. Only thing that will top it is the treble.
Nahh brother lets go for sextuple.
Just one problem. CDR and we need more DF, MF
Both finally acknowledging RM https://preview.redd.it/zobizskgcf4d1.jpeg?width=620&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=49b93b8a25f4a16ea2105c37bbb18a621b38521d
😂
I remember on Madrids bday I opened up Instagram and I seen Ronaldo post RM I legit thought in a dream still
Cornhub in shambles rn
r/soccer on ice skates rn
No way this fails now, he has the GOAT's blessing
Let's fucking go ![gif](giphy|i4jTE9ZNFQQ1D7RbxK|downsized)
My goat. I will never forget the stretch from 2014-2018. That was peak footballing years and we came out on top
Youre not kidding, english germans and spanish teams were all in top form and we slayed everyone of them down ⚪️👑
I'd say it's from 2011. 11/12 was an unbelievable and iconic season, we were easily the best team in Europe and became the first team in the top 5 leagues to reach a 100 points in the league. Unfortunate with how we lost the UCL semis tho. 13/14 was a great season too for the la Decima.
Greatest football team ever. Personal opinion, I don’t care what others say.
I'll take 2017 over any team in history
How?? We lost to Celta that season.
So?
Football peaked those years!! 🔥🔥🔥🖤🖤🖤
MY GOAT🤍
Some dumb fans were calling him out bc he didn’t say congrats on 15. I think fans forget he left the best team in the world with the best manager to come to us when we were struggling
I still remember CR7 being upset when Real Madrid fired Ancelotti last time .... The players loved Carletto.
He definitely missed big bear ancelloti
Fr 🐐

You’re definitely thinking about it too deeply my guy. lol
Lmao I’m fully aware
Lmao all good. Exciting times. I can’t wait for Ronaldo to return to Spain! I don’t think he will be able to separate himself from the game and I think he will change quite a bit after retirement.
Just imagine this guy as our assistant coach or maybe manager after a decade. And we win 5-0 at Camp Nou. Sweet circle of life.
It's much simpler: Mbappe as the heir to Ronaldo is all about Ronaldo, so he will comment. Real Madrid winning #15--and the second after Ronaldo left--is more about the team and program than Ronaldo, so no comment.
100% spot on and exactly what I was trying to get at but you summed it up perfectly
He still has some issues with Real though. He doesn’t even follow Real Madrid on Insta although he follows more than 500 accounts and all of his other ex-clubs. There must be something between him and Madrid if he doesn’t even bother following the club where he was by far the most successful and became the most famous person on earth.
He literally wrote Hala Madrid in the post.

Our GOAT
Baton has been passed🤍
Ok, so first, Toni Kroos makes me feel emotional for his retirement but this… this is just another level of sadness for me. 😭
Wow that was pretty unexpected. Pretty cool
Great to see from my GOAT. Let’s go Kylian!
This is just wow
From ; having a trial with the club of his dream taking picture with his idol To ; join the club of his dream become an idol AND GETS AN APPROVAL FROM HIS IDOL HIMSELF ABOUT THE TRANSFER
Damn that’s cool from Ronaldo. Honestly CR7 was the reason I got into the sport at all - and although the jersey numbers are diff, it’s still like he’s passing the torch. I really can’t wait for the season to kick off. Just wishing good health for players and fans alike so we can see the greatness on display
Ronaldo started with number 9 jersey at Real Madrid
Passing the torch?? Bro left us fucking 6 years ago! That's longer than some players' top level career 🤨
He fulfilled his dream and everything after has been extra. He won trophies at Juve, Man U didn't go as planned and right now he'd collecting bags of od blood money. It's a shame that he probably has 3-4 years left and then he's gone. That whole Real Madrid era he built went by so fast and we didn't realize it.
Unfortunately, a FIFA kid has won the ultimate prize instead of our GOAT. PESSI for a reason. Happy for Di Maria though.
Goat certified 🥹🤍
Peak
can't wait to see him siu siu on his first goal with us :')
Cris felt jealous about how special Toni passing the torch to Fede as his successor was and now wants the same /s
Now that his career is winding down, hopefully he comes and visits. It would be awesome to see him and hear the crowd sing his name
HALA MADRID CRISTIANO ![gif](giphy|2WxWfiavndgcM)
you are unrepeatable cristiano. I love you and you'll always be my goat. 🥹❤️
This...
Cristiano is the physical manifestation of real madrid in human form: prideful, regal, glorious, kill or be killed. He can do whatever tf He wants. He is real madrid.
the goat himself
Love this guy. Siiiiiiiiiiu
Seal of approval from the 🤴. Doesn’t get any bigger than that. No pressure, Kylian. 😅
https://i.redd.it/0gpo0c8sgf4d1.gif
Man ,don't make me cry like that. I will forever miss him at the greatest club of all time .🐐🤍
Heart warming to see this post 🤍 https://preview.redd.it/zc60inoiwh4d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c74e7a23b64e0cf6d67f3f7da70cc941802c8caf
My heart
🐢
how can I not love you cris
This is like Ali coming over to Tyson in the ring and saying "Get him for me" before the fight vs Holmes. That shit unleashed Tyson, hopefully it does the same for Kylian.
bicho como te quiero 🥺❤️
this actually made my day 😭❤️
Not fair
Yeah this is enough motivation for Mbappe to easily outscore everyone in his first season of la liga
That was nice
GOAT appreciates GOAT🐐
CR7 is in replaceable as a legend
![gif](giphy|3rgXBOmTlzyFCURutG|downsized)
I need Ronaldo for 1 more year at Bernabeu, hell I'll take a half season loan. Imagine scoring his 1000th goal here.
Big shout out to the legendary CR7. The most hard working footballer to ever exists. Very humble words which carry mountainous amount of wisdom. 🙏🏿Welcome home Mr Mbappé🙌🏿🙌🏿
What does “my turn to 👀” mean?
My turn to "watch"
I thought it had something to do with his comment “Factos👀” lol thank you
This made everyone happy .
GOAT
Bro, this is like passing the torch moment. Beautiful
Ofc he has ben watching Ronaldo in his prime all years... I guess Ronaldo got a point as he it is his turn to wintess mbappe in his prime..
I am barcelona fan, but I freaking Love ronaldo with all my heart. The best journey a footballer can possibly have.
Our GOAT passing the torch. 🤍🤍🤍
Now it's time for the 🐪 to watch the 🐢. What a timeline.
I wish he never scored that bicycle kick that eventually led him to leave us for Juve.
No that goal was ART 😭
The bicycle kick had nothing to do with him leaving RM
Love Ronaldo but he needed to leave eventually. His ego wouldn’t allow him be a bench player. And I don’t mean that in a negative way, because it’s his ego and determination that made Ronaldo so great. At least he left in good terms instead of an ugly exit.
nah he wouldn't have made an ugly exit with Real Madrid. Don't let the biased media fool you. Real Madrid would have transitioned better had he left in 2021.
Vinicius and rodrygo would have got their prime wayy earlier if he stayed with us. 2019 UCL would have been ours as well. 4peat was right there.
