Ronaldo


Brazilian footballer who was voted FIFA World Player of the Year in 1996, 1997, and 2002. A prolific goal-scorer, he moved from PSV Eindhoven to Barcelona for £13.25 million in 1996, then a year later to Inter Milan for an estimated £20 million, a world transfer record at the time. He made his full international debut in 1994. He was top scorer at the 2002 World Cup, scoring eight times in total, including both goals in the final. Later that summer he moved to Real Madrid and helped them to win the League title in his first season. In January 2007, he signed for AC Milan.
