Cristiano has released a fragrance. This is a surprising thing only because this is the first time Cristiano Ronaldo has released a fragrance. 

We were shocked when we found this out. We figured Cristiano releases fragrances with the same frequency that some of us release bowel movements after we have eaten Taco Bell.

Cristiano's fragrance is called "Legacy," and we have no idea why. We guess it's one of those fragrance names engineered by marketers that's meant to sound kind of cool but ultimately means nothing.

Borussia Dortmund spent $100.5 million on player salaries in 2014. Let’s get that out of the way, because the idea that BVB are anything but a financial giant in German soccer is at the best untrue and at worst annoying. Ok, we can have fun now!

Real Madrid certainly have a high opinion of Ronaldo. Which begs the question, how much is Cristiano Ronaldo worth to them?

Before we get into that, it's also worth asking why wouldn't Real Madrid assign a high value to Ronaldo? He's either the best or second-best footballer and one of the most marketabe athletes in the world. His jerseys fly off the shelves. He's the player people come to see when the come to see Real Madrid.

Paris Saint-Germain know this about Cristiano Ronaldo, and have in the past declared their intentions to buy him from Real Madrid.

This guy knows how to take pride in the little things fairly long things.  

Bicycle kicks are good and also Eden Hazard is good. With that being said, the winner of this video is the person who added the music after Hazard hammered an overhead in Belgium training:

Pass. Bike. Score. Dance. I couldn’t ask for more out of a video.

In England, it doesn’t get any bigger than Manchester United and Liverpool. Just ask Pele, who compared the Northwest England derby to El Clasico last spring. Thirty-four miles and two major trophies separate the two most successful sides In England history.

Zlatan was asked by PSG TV what superpowers he wanted. His answer, because he is Zlatan, was "i already have them."

So, we must speculate on which superpowers Zlatan Ibrahimovic possesses. This should be fun.

Cristiano Ronaldo is the boss. 

We already knew this, but we couldn't grasp just how boss Cristiano Ronaldo is. 

"How boss is he?"

Cristiano Ronaldo is so boss that he rides in the front of the plane when Portugal go places.

Not, like, the front seats of the plane. Cristiano Ronaldo is so boss he rides in the effing cockpit. And he tells the pilots where and how to fly the plane (probably).

And the pilots let him bring a friend. Cristiano Ronaldo is so boss he gets to ride in the cockpit and he gets a plus-one. 

As if there was ever a dull moment in the world of FIFA these days; issues revolving around the 2018 and 2022 World Cups continue to get worse. The laborers involved with constructing the Russian World Cup stadiums have come out saying they haven’t been paid for their work in months.

The man who led Borussia Dortmund above and beyond everyone’s expectations during his seven year spell has now spoken out about returning to football since leaving the club. The German manager who is currently in a hiatus in his career to “take stock of the countless memories” has hinted at where he may end up when returning to football.
