Cristiano Ronaldo 'signed' as Madeira ambassador 23 years ago

dnoticias.pt1 September 2026 at 14:00

Cristiano Ronaldo, a footballer native of Madeira, made a lightning trip to his homeland to sign a special contract. The agreement consisted of becoming one of the ambassadors of Madeira as European Region in 2004.

At the time, Ronaldo defended the colors of Manchester United, one of the biggest clubs in world football. The choice as ambassador was part of the celebrations and recognition of the region as European Region.

The star was received at Quinta Vigia by the president of the Regional Government of Madeira, Alberto João Jardim. However, the signing of the agreement was carried out directly between Cristiano Ronaldo and the vice-president, Cunha e Silva.

The article also mentions that Cristiano Ronaldo received a memento during the visit, although the text appears cut off at this part. This partnership represented an important milestone for the international promotion of the Portuguese autonomous region.
