One of the two standout players of this generation, Cristiano Ronaldo is easily one of the greatest players of all time. Ronaldo joined Real Madrid from Manchester United for a then world record fee of £80 million and he has been worth every single penny so far.

Real Madrid’s record goalscorer and the second highest La Liga scorer of all time, Ronaldo’s goalscoring exploits in the La Liga have been absolutely mind boggling. In 252 appearances for Los Blancos, the Portuguese Superstar has scored 274 goals and is the only player in La Liga history to have a goalscoring ratio of more than 1 (1.087) goal per game (minimum 100 goals).

While there is no doubt that Ronaldo is one of the greatest players of all time, the fact that he has won only one La Liga title during his illustrious career sees him in the 9th position. With Ronaldo showing no signs of slowing down, he might well end up much higher on this list by the time he retires.
