In the first ninety minutes after Cristiano Ronaldo of Portugal created his YouTube channel, almost a million subscribers signed up. The 39-year-old, five-time Ballon d’Or winner has played for Portugal in international competitions for over 20 years and is a member of the Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr. “The wait is ended. I’ve finally launched my @YouTube channel! Join me on this new journey by subscribing,” Ronaldo wrote on social media on Wednesday. The newly established digital channel got 1.69 million followers within a few hours after he uploaded his first video.
Ronaldo has 112.5 million followers on the X platform, 170 million on Facebook and 636 million on Instagram. The former Manchester United and Real Madrid star is getting ready for Thursday’s Saudi Pro League debut against Al-Raed.
