Di Salvo delivers glowing Ronaldo report to Real Madrid chiefs

Real Madrid fitness chief Valter di Salvo has delivered a glowing report on the professionalism of Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo.

AS says Real directors Pedja Mijatovic and Carlos Buceros asked Di Salvo, who left United only last summer, to produce a report a month ago on Ronaldo's attitude and approach.

Among his findings, the Italian declared that "Ronaldo was one of the best players at Manchester United for training and commitment". He also stated that while the spotlight was always brightest on the Portuguese, "inside the four walls of the dressing room, he was just one more player".
