Most followed football players on Twitter – the top ten (Part 2)
5. Ronaldinho (Ronaldo de Assis Moreira)
The Gaucho may have lost much of his pace, his National team place and his Ballon d’Or titles, but in the heart of the fans, Ronnie still remains a legend and a cult figure. With 580,508 fans following the ever smiling Brazilian on twitter, it’s really hard
disagreeing with this fact. The AC Milan winger is on fifth in our list. Rossoneri number 80 is following his current club on twitter and not Barcelona; surprising indeed.

6. Andres Iniesta
Gone are the days when Andres Iniesta was declared under-rated. The player had a stunning World Cup with Spain as he scored the winner in the final. Andres Iniesta ranks 7th with us with 385,277 people following him. Apparently, the Barcelona
sensation is a fan of Lance Armstrong and Hollywood legend Robert DeNiro.

7. Freddy Adu
The young American burst on to the scene in 2007 as a teen sensation as Benfica duly snapped him up. The youngster failed to live up to the expectations as the club has been loaning out the player for successive seasons. Adu is just 21 years of age and with
right coaching, will become a good forward in the future. The player is still followed by the Americans – Adu has 381,158 fans following him.

8. Maurice Edu
In Edu, we have another surprise entry in the list. The Rangers’ midfielder ranks 8th in our list with 369,161 fans following him. The former Toronto FC player is no European star but with so many people following him, it is clear the beautiful
game has gathered some big following in the United States.

9. Carlos Puyol (Carles Puyol i Saforcada)
We have yet another Spanish Primera Liga player on the list, Carlos Puyol ranks 9th in our list of celebrities. The Catalonian legend made his professional debut with Barcelona and has been with the club ever since. Blaugrana skipper has 336,524
people following him on twitter. Interestingly the player is following Francesc Fabregas on Twitter indicating the two are good friends.
