Cristiano Ronaldo the Real Madrid star who recently awarded as world richest player according to The Goal Rich List 2014 was asked to donate his cleats and used jersey for a charity auction, benefitting a 10 month old child suffering from a brain disorder.
The 10 month old Erik Ortiz-Cruz suffers from cortical dysplasia, a brain disorder that causes him to have as many as 30 seizures per day. Ortiz-Cruz’s family has not been able to cover the costs of his treatment until a family friend reached out to Ronaldo.
The friend originally asked Ronaldo to donate cleats or a signed Real Madrid jersey for an auction on the child’s behalf, but Ronaldo went ahead and pledged to pay the full $83,000 cost of the surgery.
