The former midfielder of Milan, Leite Kaka, has described his former teammate at Real Madrid and the striker of Juventus, Cristiano Ronaldo, as ‘a great man’.

Kaka played alongside Ronaldo for three years at Real Madrid, until the Brazilian returned to Milan in 2013.

However, their relationship continues to remain good and recently Kaka has spoken big words about the Portuguese, describing him as a great man.

“Cristiano is not only a champion but also a great man”, Kaka initially said to SporTV.

“He was always attentive, thoughtful and available to everyone in the dressing room.”

“Okay, maybe he was a little lonely… but he always behaves.”

“He helped me a lot, he even helped me during the interviews.

“When we were at a training camp in Los Angeles, he made sure he got 15 cell phones and gave them to all the staff.”

“I never had any problems with him or with any of my friends,” concluded the Brazilian star. /Telegraph/
