Ex-Real Madrid playmaker Kaka says current star of the team Cristiano Ronaldo deserves more respect for what he has done for the club.
The playmaker, now plying his trade in the MLS, was asked about his thoughts on the Portugal star – who is Los Blancos’ all time top scorer.
Ronaldo has scored 41 goals for his club this season but has been jeered by some sections of the Madridista support base for a perceived lack of effort in big games.
At 31, there is also talk of Ronaldo possibly moving on this summer with Manchester United, PSG or a host of clubs in the MLS mentioned as likely destinations should he leave.
But Kaka said the three-time Ballon d’Or winner deserves more respect for what he has achieved in his seven seasons to date.
“Cristiano is a great player, I am not just talking about his quality, but in terms of what he has contributed to Madrid. I would like to see the fans have more respect for Cristiano Ronaldo for what he has done for this club,” he said.
And he added: “Sometimes I hear whistles against Cristiano and it’s not good after all he has done. I recommend that he stays in Madrid. Proportion that things happen at Madrid is very big. If things do go well the proportion is big and if they don’t, its also still big.”
Real Madrid can beat Barcelona to the amazement of MNS and the.entire Barca team.
