Nacho: Ronaldo can already be compared to Di Stefano at Real Madrid

The Portuguese star has done enough to put his name alongside an all-time legend, says the Blancos centre-back

Cristiano Ronaldo can already put his name alongside Alfredo Di Stefano's at Real Madrid, according to Blancos defender Nacho Fernandez.

The Portuguese star will attempt to collect the fifth Champions League winners' medal in his career and fourth with Madrid on Saturday against Liverpool in Kiev.

Ronaldo's fifth European crown would put him level with the Argentine legend, who won five European Cup titles in a row with Madrid between 1955 and 1960.

Di Stefano is widely considered one of the greatest players in football history, and Nacho believes his team-mate is on equal footing with the Argentine great, who passed away in 2014.
