Cristiano Ronaldo has officially opened his museum in Madeira, which offers a journey through his career based on the various individual and team prizes he has won. The Real Madrid forward told the press that there would "always be a space" for 'La Décima' at the sight, adding that he hopes to lift the trophy this year.
The exhibition features 150 pieces of silverware in all, from the first trophy he won – in 1993, with Andorinha – to the Ballon d'Or and the Pichichi (the award for the top goalscorer in the Spanish league). It also includes replicas of the Champions League he picked up with Manchester United and the 'La Liga' and 'Copa del Rey' crowns he has secured so far at Real Madrid.
"I'm proud to have a museum in the city where I was born. I wouldn't want to pick out any trophy in particular; they're all very special and I owe them to all my teammates. Here's hoping there are many more to come", the Portugal star exclaimed.
Ronaldo reiterated that he isn't losing any sleep over the Ballon d'Or, calling it "a trophy like any other". He also refused to reveal whether he'll be attending the awards gala: "I'm in discussions with the club and we'll see what happens".
Finally, CR7 gave his view on the 2014 World Cup draw. "We want to have a great World Cup. We've got a tough group and we'll have to be at our best to go far", he noted.
