Embarking on his seventh Champions League campaign in Real Madrid colours, Cristiano Ronaldo is still very much the main man at the Bernabeu.
His teammates clearly value his presence, and seem to think that a training session ahead of the visit of Shakhtar Donetsk is a suitable time to show him this.
At the beginning of the video below, the Portuguese can be seen receiving a hug from Brazilian teammate, Marcelo. Within seconds, Luka Modric follows with a similar gesture, then comes Keylor Navas and then more…
It’s difficult to tell what the cause of this spontaneous outpouring of affection is, but Cristiano’s increasingly self-conscious expression tells us that he’s perhaps not at ease with being the subject of the joke.
