Cristiano Ronaldo, the legendary footballer known for his competitive spirit, is taking his drive off the pitch with a new ambition. He aims to surpass MrBeast, the American YouTube sensation, in the subscriber race. Ronaldo, who recently launched his YouTube channel "UR Cristiano," is determined to become the most subscribed channel on the platform.
Ronaldo expressed his goal at a recent press conference: “MrBeast on YouTube? In two years, let’s try to beat him.” This declaration comes as MrBeast, whose real name is James Donaldson, holds a massive 313 million subscribers. Ronaldo, currently at 56.5 million subscribers, plans to close this gap.
