Marcelo Admits Real Madrid Miss 'Best in the World' Cristiano Ronaldo




Real Madrid vice-captain Marcelo has admitted that Los Blancos miss Cristiano Ronaldo but also claims that feeling the Portuguese superstar's absence is only natural after all these years.

After spending the last nine seasons at the Santiago Bernabeu winning every possible trophy, Ronaldo left Real in favour of ​Serie A outfit ​Juventus in the summer transfer window.

It wasn't long before they felt his absence, succumbing to a series of disappointing results under former coach Julen Lopetegui. Santiago Solari's appointment has seen Madrid make something of a recovery, although they are still five points behind defending champions ​Barcelona.

The forward, on the other hand, has settled in effortlessly with the Bianconeri, scoring 10 goals in 15 league appearances.

Marcelo admits that the three-time reigning ​Champions League winners miss their record goalscorer, but feels it's only natural given his stature and contribution.

"He is a player who as well as being my team-mate is my friend, as he is with Sergio [Ramos] and Luka [Modric]," the Brazilian told Club del Deportista, as quoted by FourFourTwo.

"It's obvious that when the best player in the world isn't in your team you're going to miss him. But I don't want to say that we don't have the best players in the world in every position."

"Any team would like to have Cristiano with them, but Madrid will continue to be Madrid despite players coming and going," the left-back concluded.
