Arsenal midfielder Fabio Vieira has revealed that Manchester United frontman Cristiano Ronaldo is one of his idols, before going on to praise the Portuguese star for how he interacts with younger players.
The 22-year-old, who joined the Gunners in the summer from Porto, has not played alongside Ronaldo for Portugal, but revealed that his fellow countryman is one of his biggest influences. Vieira also lauded the United man for how he inspires other players with his dedication to his craft.
Ronaldo has endured a difficult campaign at Old Trafford so far this season, registering just three goals in 14 appearances for Erik ten Hag's side. The 37-year-old is likely to feature for the Reds in their upcoming Europa League clash against Real Sociedad on Thursday night.
