Ronaldo, who turned 37 on Saturday, February 5, has continued to defy his age to compete at football's top level.

The Portugal international has been in spectacular shape since his return to Old Trafford in the summer having scored 14 goals in 24 appearances thus far this term.

Since his return to United, the veteran forward has become the all-time leading goalscorers in men's international football and recently became the first player in history to score 800 goals.

Given his continued success and no sign of slowing down, the United attacker has maintained a lofty price tag even as he plans to continue playing at the top level in the foreseeable future.
