Bayern Munich defender De Ligt: Ronaldo great with young players; best in the world

Bayern Munich signing Matthijs de Ligt has spoken of playing with Cristiano Ronaldo at Juventus.

The Manchester United striker is being linked with Bayern this summer.

“Cristiano Ronaldo is a great character, he talks a lot with his teammates, with the young players, and is always ready to help. He will soon be 38, but he’s shaped like a 24 year old and still scores his goals. You can only admire him,” De Ligt told Kicker.

“He did a great job at Juventus, he scored goals and was a great teammate. If you ask me who is the best player in the world inside the penalty area I say Ronaldo.

“You always have to keep an eye on him otherwise he scores.”
