Ronaldo, Gareth Barry pick Guinness World Records

Like Petr Cech who was recently honoured for having the most number of clean sheets in Premier League history at 181 and for being the first goalkeeper to win the Golden Glove with two different clubs in the English top-flight – Arsenal and Chelsea, some notable sportsmen were also included in the Guinness Book of World Records 2017

Cristiano Ronaldo earned a spot for having the most followers on Twitter by any athlete, with a following of 47.4m. Everton’s Gareth Barry also holds the record for most Premier League starts by any player- pegged at 580.
