Cristiano Ronaldo was born on February 5, 1985, in Funchal, Madeira, Portugal.

Manchester United paid


£12 million to sign him in 2003 - a record fee for a player of his age. In the 2004 FA Cup Final, he scored
Manchester's first three goals and helped them capture the championship. In 2008, he set a franchise record for
goals scored. In 2009, Real Madrid paid a record $131 million for his service.
It was through his dad's work as an equipment manager at a boy's club that Ronaldo was first introduced
to the game of soccer. By the time he was 10 years old, he was already recognized as a phenomenon - a kid who
ate, slept and drank the game. "All he wanted to do as a boy was playing football," his godfather, Fernao Sousa,
recalled for British reporters, adding, "He loved the game so much that he'd miss meals or escape out his
bedroom window with a ball when he was supposed to be doing his homework."
By his early teens, Ronaldo's talent and legend had grown considerably. After a stint with Nacional da
liha da Madeira, he signed with Sporting Portugal in 2001. That same year, at the tender age of 16, Ronaldo
turned heads with a impressing performance against Manchester United, wowing even his opponents with his
footwork and deft skill. He made such an impression that a number of United players asked their manager to try
and sign the young player. It wasn't long before the club paid Ronaldo's team more than £12 million for his
services - a record fee for a player of his age.

Dear Mr. Green:

        I am writing concerning claim #760. The amount that your adjusters have set for the damage
caused by Hurricane Harry to my barn is unacceptably low.The amount that your company has
offered would not even allow doing the work myself, as the materials alone would cost almost $300
more than your estimate.

        I am including the estimate from our independent contractors that I have asked to inspect the
damage to my barn, and their estimates vary between $1,500 and $1,750.

        I would like your company to take into consideration the estimates I have provided and
reevaluate your settlement offer. If you continue to deny the fact that your offer is unacceptably low, I
will need to seek legal counsel.

        I will appreciate your immediate attention to this matter.

    Yours sincerely,

    Mathew Liverpool
