CRISTIANO RONALDO has boarded a private jet to Paris in expectation of winning his fifth Ballon d’Or.
The Real Madrid superstar made history last night as his side defeated Borussia Dortmund 3-2 in the Champions League.
And he is surely to make a new slice of history off the pitch too by taking his fifth crown – matching the tally of arch rival Lionel Messi.
Ronaldo uploaded a photo to his Instagram showing himself getting on a plane with trademark ‘CR7’ logo and a silhouette of him celebrating.
He even wore his new Air Force 1 CR7 trainers for the trip, complete with a golden swoosh and eye-catching white style.
He wrote alongside it: “Flying in style!”

The 32-year-old dad of four was joined on the flight by his mother Dolores and sister Katia Aveiro.
Mum Dolores even posted a selfie on her own Instagram with the caption: “Pronta para uma ida a Paris,’ which translates as “Ready for another trip to Paris”.

Ronaldo’s girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez is also on the trip.
The 22-year-old looked a bit bored in the stands during her man’s heroics last night.
But she wore a beaming smile while posing for a family selfie.
She wrote alongside the snap: “On the way to Paris for the Ballon d’Or with the family.”
Champions League and La Liga triumphs with Real are expected to be enough to seal the deal for Ronaldo tonight.
The winner is due to be announced at 6.45pm.
