Former Premier League goalkeeper Ben Foster has discussed what Cristiano Ronaldo was like in the Manchester United dressing room when the pair were at the club together.
There is drama surrounding the club and the player right now because many players supposedly want him gone as he is damaging the atmosphere in the current dressing room at the start of Erik ten Hag‘s reign.
It is no secret that he has been trying to force a move away from United all summer but it is yet to materialise.
Foster played for United between 2005 and 2009 and he finds it hard to believe that Ronaldo could be disruptive.
Quizzed if the forward ever caused off-field issues at Old Trafford while appearing on talkSPORT, the goalkeeper said: “No, never. Honestly, he was proper sound.
“He was never disruptive, never ever. I would never have a bad word to say about him.
“Everyone knows that he is super professional and he did everything right.
“I guarantee it’s the same now. You look at his pictures on Instagram… He’s shredded, it’s ridiculous!
“He would come in, and he wasn’t quite to the same level as Paul Scholes. Scholes would be in, out, shake [your hand], that will do.
“He isn’t trying to talk to people. Scholesy was a private person, he’d come in, play his football and go home. That was the beauty of Paul Scholes.
“Ronaldo would talk to people. He had a bit more about him and would try to integrate with the lads and have a laugh and stuff, but he was never disruptive. Never ever.”
Foster went on to add: “I guarantee that he isn’t going in there, kicking up a fuss and being that divisive guy.”
A number of clubs including Chelsea and Bayern Munich have turned down the opportunity to sign Cristiano Ronaldo this summer.
