The latest social media activity on the part of Real Madrid legend Cristiano Ronaldo has turned heads across the Blancos fanbase on Thursday.
As much comes after the Portuguese moved to showcase his appreciation for recent comments on the part of a current member of the club’s squad.
The player in question? Antonio Rüdiger.
Fresh off securing the award for Real Madrid Player of the Month this week, stopper Rüdiger was asked for his take on the greatest players in the capital giants’ storied history.
And, in order from 5th to first, the German opted for the following quintet:
Ronaldo Nazário, Sergio Ramos, Raúl, Zinedine Zidane and, top of the pile, the aforementioned Cristiano Ronaldo.
And, safe to say, such lofty praise on Rüdiger’s part did not go unappreciated on the part of CR7 himself.
In turn, taking to the comments section of the post highlighting Rüdiger’s rankings on Instagram, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner responded with a trio of clapping emojis:
