Pic: Cristiano Ronaldo has spent a lot of money on a waxwork statue of himself for his mansion

Of course he has

Cristiano Ronaldo has worked hard to get this point.

The Real Madrid forward has managed to twice usurp Lionel Messi as the best player twice in the past five years, winning the Ballon d’Or in both 2013 and 2014.

He’s also reportedly, along with Messi, the highest paid footballer in the world, and was named the most charitable athlete in the world recently.

Ronaldo has made a lot of money, for being very talented and dedicated, but also gives more than his fair share back to those in need.

He’s free to treat himself every once in a while too, and if he wants to do so by spending over €27,000 on a waxwork of himself for his mansion, then good luck to him, right?

The 30 year old was reportedly impressed so much by a statue of himself in a Madrid wax museum, he commissioned a statue for his home.

According to The Daily Mail, Ronaldo “even got his personal hairdresser to ensure the wax figure has his trademark hairstyle.”

Whatever you’re into Ronnie.
