Real Madrid star Ronaldo collects another award: Now for Ballon d'Or...

Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo admits he's eyeing off the Ballon d'Or. Ronaldo won the Best Player of the year at the Globe Soccer awards.

"I hope that it's a good sign [for the Ballon d'Or], but I'm not worried about that. The people who vote already have. I just feel happy it's one more trophy for my dedication and hard work," said CR7.

"I want to say thank you to the people at Real Madrid, the players, the coach, we had a fantastic season, we won four trophies and we're one of the best sides in the world. To win this award is a great pleasure, I am very proud.

"I don't have pressure because these things come naturally to me, I don't have to prove anything to anyone, my football talks for me on the pitch. I am happy. I do what I like [doing], playing football, scoring goals, assisting and helping to show we are one of the best teams in the world. La Décima was one of the special moments of the season, as Real Madrid had been after it for a long time."
