Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo is a "legend" and one of the greatest players of all-time, according to team-mate Sergio Ramos.

Ramos sung the praises of the Portugal international, saying he was different to any forward the world had ever seen.
"Our number seven is a striker like we have never seen before," the Spain defender told Telefoot.
"He is already a legend and will be recognised as one of the best players in the history of football.
"Cristiano Ronaldo has a very important role in the team and everyone respects it."
Ronaldo is yet to hit top form this season, but has scored 16 goals in 21 games in all competitions.
