Herbalife (NYSE: HLF), a global nutrition company, congratulates
International soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo, an Herbalife
Nutrition-sponsored athlete since 2013, on being named The Best
FIFA Men’s Player 2016. The award was determined through a combined
voting process that included the votes of team captains and
managers from national teams all around the globe, an online public
ballot of football fans, and votes by a select group of global
media representatives.
“Herbalife Nutrition is proud to congratulate Cristiano Ronaldo
for this well-deserved award that celebrates an incredible year
filled with amazing accomplishments,” said Michael O. Johnson,
chairman and CEO, Herbalife. “We have a proud heritage of
supporting athletes around the world like Cristiano who exemplify
our belief in proper nutrition and a healthy, active
lifestyle.”
Ronaldo, named the most famous athlete in the world by ESPN,
adds to other major awards in 2016 including the Union of European
Football Associations (UEFA) Golden Boot for being the leading
scorer in league matches from the top division of every European
national league. He is the only athlete to have won the Golden Boot
four times. Ronaldo has also won the 2015/16 UEFA Best Player in
Europe Award after leading Real Madrid to a first-place finish in
the UEFA Champions League, as well as leading his home country of
Portugal to the UEFA Euro 2016 championship for the first time
ever. And most recently he won the Ballon d’ Or, the annual
football award presented by France Football.
Herbalife Nutrition-sponsored athletes use Herbalife® products
before, during and after training and games. As part of its ongoing
commitment to improving sports nutrition and performance, Herbalife
Nutrition launched Herbalife24 CR7 Drive in collaboration with
