Cristiano Ronaldo has reached another impressive milestone as he ramps up preparations for Portugal’s next Euro 2020 match.
Even on non-match days, records continue to come Cristiano Ronaldo’s way.
The Portuguese ace has become the first person ever to reach 300 million followers on Instagram. He’s the most followed person on the social platform ahead of wrestler Dwayne Johnson (246m) and singer Ariana Grande (244m), and second only to Instagram’s own account – which has 397m followers in comparison.
