Real Madrid boss Ancelotti: Ramos just like Maldini

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has likened Sergio Ramos to Paolo Maldini.

Ancelotti worked with Maldini at AC Milan.

"Since Christmas Sergio Ramos has been a different player," Ancelotti said. "He was decisive in winning the trophies."

"He has everything that Maldini had – personality, technical quality and the ability to be a leader on and off the pitch."

"I have never compared anyone to Maldini. Sergio is the best defender in the World at the moment."
