JOE

Ten years on from the death of his father, Cristiano Ronaldo used his Instagram account to share a tribute to him with his followers.

With a caption that reads ‘Thanks daddy always in my heart,’ Ronaldo expresses his regret that his father has not been around to see his achievements.

Arguably the greatest footballer to have ever lived, what a shame that his father, José Dinis Aveiro, hasn’t been here to witness it with the rest of us.

Thanks daddy always in my heart❤️❤️❤️
