The Croatian legend also highlighted Ronaldo's massive contribution to Real Madrid during his nine-season stay in the Spanish capital.
Speaking about Ronaldo in a special La Liga Golazos edition, Modric delved into the history books, reminiscing about his days with the Portugal international and the joyous moments they shared. He said:
"I think everyone will agree that Cristiano was one of the best, if not the best player for Real Madrid. Everything that he did and achieved in Real Madrid in eight or nine years, how long he was here, was something out of this world.''
Off the pitch, Ronaldo has always been known for his leadership and influence, and his former teammate was quick to praise the forward's impact. Modric added:
"In terms of scoring goals, titles, individual records, team trophies, he was so influential. He was a leader on and off the pitch.''
Finally, the 37-year-old expressed that in his long and glorious career as a professional footballer, Cristiano Ronaldo was the best player he has played with. He said:
“It was such a pleasure to play with him all these years and to win so many trophies together. For me, the best player I played with, definitely.”
Ronaldo spent nine years at Real Madrid, scoring an incredible 450 goals in 438 appearances. He helped guide the team to numerous trophies, including four Champions League titles and two La Liga titles. He also set a host of individual records along the way, including his four Ballon d'Or awards.
The Portuguese international has long been hailed as the 'King' of the Santiago Bernabeu by Los Blancos fans for his immense contribution to their success over the past decade.
