Cristiano Ronaldo is now a confirmed 'Madrilenian'. The Portuguese player shot a video on Wednesday to support Madrid's bid for the 2020 Olympic Games. His involvement with the city he made his home four years ago is so great that the striker has decided to lend his image to the campaign.

Ronaldo will be one of the stars given the job of promoting Madrid as the perfect city to host millions of visitors and hundreds of sportsmen and women who will have the chance to enjoy sport in the greatest possible comfort at state-of-the-art facilities.

Pau Gasol, Rafael Nadal and Miguel Indurain also make an appearance in the Madrid candidacy video, Madrid wanting to feature sports personalities that would attract the attention of the members of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) responsible for choosing the host city for the Games.

The IOC will cast its votes to make the final decision on 7th September in Buenos Aires, and Madrid will find out if, finally, after many years of trying, it will make the grade as the top sporting city in the world.

The Madrid star's decision to promote the bid is no accident. Right from his first season with 'Los Blancos', the Portuguese player has become the model of professionalism and an example of the perfect sportsman. Established within the club and having become one of the key figures in the dressing room, his commitment to the city is total.
