The unveiling of the statue took place on December 21, 2014, in front of the Museu CR7, a museum dedicated to the soccer superstar. Crafted from bronze, the statue stands at a towering height of 3.4 meters, including its base.

Cristiano Ronaldo, a star for Real Madrid, has erected a monumental statue in his honor. The Portugal international flew to his home on the Portuguese island of Madeira, where he stood in front of the sculpture with his family.

And emotion is difficult to refute given that Ronaldo is by far the island’s largest export. At his birthplace of Funchal, there is already a “CR7” museum.

Ronaldo’s decision to fly home, where he was pictured hanging from a monument with friends and relatives, was not unexpected.
