Someone like Cristiano probably doesn’t need anymore introductions or endorsements, but it’s always worth looking back at his story and being reminded that mentality does get you places!
In this clip, his old friend Rio Ferdinand went to Madrid to talk to his old friend as part of the CR7-badged Nike Mercurial release, The Chapter 5: Cut to Brilliance boots. Here’s our favourite excerpt from the interview :
