Sir Alex Ferguson has some curious praise for Cristiano Ronaldo…

JOE

Cristiano Ronaldo may be the current holder of the Ballon d’Or, but the Real Madrid forward is admired for his physique as much as his football skills.

Even Sir Alex Ferguson has passed comment on Ronaldo’s toned torso, telling the audience at the launch of his new book, Leading, that he is “jealous” of the forward’s “fantastic body”.

No-one loves Ronaldo more than himself, of course, with Ferguson also hinting at the former Manchester United star’s dressing-room vanity…

Is anyone else now picturing Fergie hitting the gym in a bid to get hench like Ronaldo?
