The Portuguese striker's last celebration was surrounded by controversy. How will he end up celebrating this year? His club kick-started all celebrations today.

Cristiano Ronaldo's birthday could not be overlooked by Real Madrid, and the club was sure to let him know how much they care for him.

All social media channels connected to the club have been flooding with information regarding the striker. In fact, the team's Facebook page asked supporters to leave a happy birthday message for the club's all-time top scorer.

Additionally, the team's website issued a video with some of his goals and key moments, starting with the unveiling ceremony held at Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, and also portraying his ball-handling skills.

Real Madrid's Twitter feed celebrated their player's birthday with this post.

Real Madrid's supporters shared an excerpt of the team's homage for CR7.

The player, who is expected to start against Granada, could choose to keep it down a bit this year. If you remember correctly, Cristiano Ronaldo's birthday party last year led to huge criticism due to its timing, as most of Los Blancos' players were celebrating with their team-mate hours after being trashed by Atlético in the Madrid derby.
