Emmanuel Adebayor only stayed six months at Real Madrid, but he had time to leave a great mark in the Spanish capital, notably scoring a double against Tottenham in the quarter-final of the Champions League. Like many players who have passed through the White House, the Togolese striker was impressed by one man: Cristiano Ronaldo.
In an interview given to RelevoAdebayor recounted his meeting with the Al-Nassr striker, and the first conversation with the man who then only had one Ballon d'Or: “Training started at 10:30 a.m. and you arrive at 7:30 a.m. To do what? Three or four hours before. I told myself to leave him in his world, so that he could enjoy football and his career. And today, he's 41 years old, he's still at the top, playing football, at the top… It's just beautiful to see. A great example. For me, having the opportunity to play with him, even if it's only six months… And he knows the respect I have for his mind, for the person, for the character he has. He always wanted to be the best. And to me, that's incredible. »
