What makes Cristiano Ronaldo one of the greatest players in the history of football? What helped him reach the position where he is now?

These people have seen him grow, and know the secret behind his success. One of these people is Rio Ferdinand, one of the best players in the world.

During Ronaldo’s tenure in Manchester United, he and Ferdinand were teammates. In fact, Ronaldo played under Rio’s leadership. That was the time when Ronaldo did not have his good hair and muscular body to make him look glamorous and powerful. All that came much later. At that time, he was a young footballer, trying to do his best and make a spot for himself in the world of sports. And, speaking about that, Ferdinand confirmed that Ronaldo was always trying to better himself, competing with himself.

Today, what we see is his glamorous life, his Bugatti Veyron and $7.1 million dollar house. What we forget is how much hard work he has had to put in to get there. He is a footballer first, and his status and skills as a footballer is what has won him all the wealth and glamour. Ferdinand speaks of Ronaldo very highly in this interview with Nike, and tells us how he has seen the development of the Real Madrid player.
