Portuguese is a joy to work with
and singled him out as one of the
finest he has seen
Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has
described Cristiano Ronaldo as a
"phenomenon" and a cut above anything
he has ever previously worked with.
The new Blancos coach, who arrived at
the Santiago Bernabeu from Paris Saint-
Germain earlier this summer, was
speaking ahead of his side's Guinness
International Champions Cup campaign.
And when quizzed on the credentials of
the Portuguese, Ancelotti was more than
glowing in his appraisal of the 28-year-
old.
"I've trained tons of talented players,"
Ancelotti said. "But Ronaldo is a
phenomenon. He has an incredible talent,
physical quality, and I'm extremely happy
to be able to coach him.
"He's very professional, and I'm
convinced he's going to have a great
season."
Ronaldo finished second in the Liga
scoring charts last season, netting 34 goals
in 34 matches. Only Ballon d'Or winner
Lionel Messi scored more, tallying 46
times.
Real Madrid kick off their involvement in
the ICC with a match against the LA
Galaxy at University of Phoenix Stadium in
Arizona on Aug 1 and face Paris Saint-
Germain in a friendly in Sweden on
Sunday.
