Cristiano Ronaldo\u2014along with rival Lionel Messi\u2014defined an entire era of the Beautiful Game. The boy whose dribbling and pace wowed the world on the wing at Manchester United morphed into CR7, the man at Real Madrid. A physically imposing, complete forward with 919 goals and counting in a career that continues in Saudi Arabia and with the Portuguese national team. He owns five Ballon d’Or trophies, second all-time only to Messi. He’s also a five-time winner of the Champions League.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, the man remains an icon. He is the most followed person on social media, with 648 million Instagram followers, a global reach, and a branding empire built through sporting success, endorsements, fashion lines, and the CR7 brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s take a look at a handful of some of the best Topps cards from CR7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
