Regarded by many as the greatest player to have played the game, Cristiano Ronaldo has achieved every possible accolade in the game.
The Portuguese is a superstar, and has consistently set new records in the game. Ronaldo enjoys legendary status at Manchester United and Real Madrid, while he is seen as Portugal's greatest ever player.
Now at Juventus, the 36-year old is still going strong and continues to be one of the best players in the world. He will be Juventus' most important player this season, so manager Massimiliano Allegri will hope Ronaldo continues to show his world-class qualities.
On that note, here's a look at five awards Cristiano Ronaldo could win this season.
#5 UEFA Player of the Year
The UEFA Men's Player of the Year award is given to the player with the best season for both club and country.
Cristiano Ronaldo was sensational last season. For a poor Juventus side, Ronaldo scored 29 league goals to win the Capocannoniere award, awarded to the top goalscorer in a Serie A campaign. Juventus finished fourth last season under Andrea Pirlo.
At the Euros, he was the joint top goalscorer alongside the Czech Republic's Patrik Schick. Ronaldo scored five goals in four games at the tournament for Portugal. Cristiano Ronaldo has previously won the UEFA Men's Player of the Year award thrice.
#4 Ballon d'Or
Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi's dominance of the Ballon d'Or award has been well-documented.
Ronaldo has won five Ballon d'Or awards, compared to Messi's six. While the Argentine is the favourite to win this year's Ballon d'Or award, Ronaldo stands a good chance of winning his sixth award as well.
The Ballon d'Or is considered by many to be the most prestigious individual trophy in football. Ronaldo last won the award way back in 2017, with Lionel Messi winning the most recent one in 2019.

#3 Serie A Most Valuable Player
Cristiano Ronaldo is the biggest star in Serie A, and has been one of the league's best performers since joining Juventus.
The 36-year-old won the Serie A Most Valuable Player award for his performances in the 2018-19 season. Since then, Juventus' Paulo Dybala and Inter Milan's Romelu Lukaku have won the award. However, Ronaldo stands a good chance of getting his hands on the Serie A Most Valuable Player award this season.
With Massimiliano Allegri back as Juventus boss, Ronaldo and his Juventus teammates will be hoping for a better season than last time around. With Inter Milan substantially weakened, Ronaldo and Juventus will fancy their chances of another strong season.
#2 European Golden Shoe
The European Golden Shoe is awarded to the leading goalscorer in European top-flight football.
Bayern Munich's Robert Lewandowski is the current holder of the award, while Lionel Messi (6) has won this award the most. Cristiano Ronaldo last won the European Golden Shoe award in 2014-15 while he was at Real Madrid.
Ronaldo has won the prestigious award four times, once with Manchester United and thrice with Real Madrid. If he can match his level from last season, the Portuguese superstar stands a good chance of winning his fifth European Golden Shoe award.
#1 Capocannoniere award
The Capocannoniere award is presented to the player who scores the most goals in a Serie A season,
Some big names like Omar Sivori, Michel Platini, Diego Maradona, Marco van Basten and Gabriel Batistuta have won the prestigious award, with Cristiano Ronaldo its most recent recipient.
The 36-year-old could do it once again this season. Juventus under Massimiliano Allegri should be a better unit than they were last season, so Ronaldo will get his chances. The Portugal international has always been a consistent goalscorer, and with Romelu Lukaku returning to the Premier League, the competition for this prestigious Serie A award has diminished.
