It’s been a good 2016-17 season for Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo. A seventh-consecutive 45-plus goal season, his second La Liga title with Real Madrid and a fourth Champions League triumph in his career (his third with his Spanish club).
Now, the famous No. 7 can add one more notch to his belt that, depending on who you speak to, is every bit as prestigious as any of his other vast accomplishments: EA Sports FIFA 18 cover star.
