'Playing with Ronaldo is a dream' - Andre Silva wants to lead World Cup bid alongside world's best

The Real Madrid superstar opened his tournament in style with a hat-trick against Spain and an AC Milan forward is not hoping to offer assistance

Andre Silva admits it is “a dream” to play alongside Cristiano Ronaldo, with a Portuguese team-mate considering the Real Madrid superstar to be “the best in the world”.

The five-time Ballon d’Or winner lit up the World Cup with his first outing at Russia 2018, with a stunning hat-trick netted in a thrilling 3-3 draw with Spain.

Ronaldo is the only iconic performer to have delivered the level of performance expected of him so far, with the likes of Lionel Messi and Neymar having struggled for Argentina and Brazil respectively.
