Cristiano Ronaldo poured out his heart to express his love in a love song when fans affirmed that “he is not only the greatest football player of all time”.
Fans were stunned by Cristiano Ronaldo’s “heavenly” voice after discovering an old video of him singing Julio Iglesias’ “Amor Mio.” Recorded in 2009 for an ad campaign in Portugal, the clip shows Ronaldo passionately belting out the love song in a recording studio, leaving fans in awe.

The video was an advertisement for a bank called Banco Espirito Sanro (BES). But the bank no longer exists. Ronaldo may wish the video would disappear like the bank, but unfortunately for the 39-year-old Al Nassr striker, it is still online.
Fans seem to love the hilarious clip, which was meant to be sarcastic. But that hasn’t stopped fans from reacting positively to Ronaldo’s sudden resurgence on social media .
One person wrote: “Cristiano Ronaldo is not only the greatest footballer of all time but also the greatest singer of all time.” A second person added: “Ronaldo has great football skills and also has a great voice.”

While another commented : “Why am I in tears? Cristiano Ronaldo’s voice is like an angel…”. And a fourth joked: “The best singer in the world and you can’t change my mind!”
The campaign was filmed while Ronaldo was still in the final days of his first spell at Manchester United. The 39-year-old Portuguese goal machine went on to sign for Real Madrid that summer (2009) and his stardom reached heights far beyond singing in a bank ad.

Now a star, Cristiano Ronaldo boasts advertising campaigns with companies like Nike and Armani and has even launched his own underwear brand in the past. Ronaldo will certainly put the microphone down this summer as he focuses on football and Portugal’s Euro 2024 campaign. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner will be playing in his 11th major international tournament for Portugal as he seeks a second European Championship.
