Rio Ferdinand has explained how the Manchester United dressing room helped mould Cristiano Ronaldo into the superstar he is today with some very tough love.
Ronaldo joined the Red Devils from Sporting Lisbon back in 2003 as a raw talent. He spent six years at Old Trafford where he won a Ballon d'Or, three Premier League titles and the Champions League before departing for Real Madrid.
The Portugual international grew up considerably in the time he spent at United, moving to Madrid as one of the greatest players to have ever graced the game and going on to win a further four Ballon d'Or awards, two La Liga titles and four Champions Leagues.
