Not Sir Alex Ferguson, this is the best coach according to Cristiano Ronaldo. How could it not be, CR7 surprisingly said that the man from Scotland was not the best coach.
Throughout his career as a footballer, Ronaldo changed clubs quite often. Sporting Lisbon, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus and now Al Nassr have experienced Ronaldo’s power.
According to Transfermarkt records, a total of 15 coaches have handled Ronaldo at club level. Sir Alex Ferguson is the coach who gave Ronaldo the most playing opportunities.
While at MU under Ferguson, Ronaldo was able to record 292 matches in all competitions. He was able to score 118 goals and 63 assists.
This player from Portugal also surprisingly rejected Ferguson when asked to name his favorite coach. The Al Nassr superstar instead singled out former Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho as the greatest coach he ever worked with.
“I would put him at the top, I always say that. I have played for so many great coaches, but Jose Mourinho is a big analytical thinker, he does everything in great detail,” said Ronaldo, quoted by the Mirror, Friday ( 12/15/2023).
In the hands of Jose Mourinho, Ronaldo played 164 times in Madrid. There were 168 goals and 49 assists scored by the player who is now 38 years old.
Apart from that, Mourinho has also given some high praise to Cristiano Ronaldo. According to him, the 38 year old player’s level is as important as Zinedine Zidane for France.
“Ronaldo is an extraordinary player. This is like Zinedine Zidane for France, there will be no other. He is extraordinary, he is a goal scoring machine,” praised Mou.
Ronaldo has been a mainstay of the Portuguese national team since his debut in 2003. He has also played for some of the world’s best clubs, including Manchester United and Real Madrid.
While at Ferguson’s Man United, Ronaldo bagged 118 goals and 63 assists in 292 appearances in all competitions. He recorded everything in the first period, namely 2003-2009.
