Ferrara: Ronaldo should be intimidated by Zidane

Former Juventus defender Ciro Ferrara believes Cristiano Ronaldo should feel intimidated by Zinedine Zidane at Real Madrid.

Cristiano Ronaldo should feel intimidated at the thought of being coached by Zinedine Zidane, former Juventus defender Ciro Ferrara has said.

The World Cup-winning former France star was named as head coach of Real Madrid this week following the sacking of Rafael Benitez.

Former Madrid boss Vanderlei Luxemburgo suggested that Zidane could be undermined by the Portugal star if he allows his ego to get the better of him during the Santiago Bernabeu icon's spell in charge.
