EPL: Martinez opens up on Ronaldo’s attitude towards him at Man United

Lisandro Martinez has opened up on how he has been received by Cristiano Ronaldo since arriving Old Trafford from Ajax in the summer.

The Argentina International is one of a select group of players who have shared the dressing room alongside both Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

The former Ajax centre-back said he feels very fortunate to have such a rare opportunity.

“I feel privileged, it is an honour to share with them. You learn, you absorb,” he told ESPN.

“From the first day, Cristiano treated me well. He is very friendly, he has a very nice charisma, bringing smiles, making people laugh.

“He is very professional, he arrives early, he is the last to leave and he takes care of himself at meals. It all highlights why he has had such an impressive career.”
