Manchester United legend Patrice Evra has shared details on the development of his over-a-decade-long friendship with 5 time Ballon d’Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo.
Evra told Manchester United fans that it was easy to befriend Cristiano Ronaldo:

The pair enjoyed a fruitful spell at Manchester United together, lifting three league titles (retaining the title every season they played together), one League Cup, a Champions League title, and a Club World Cup.

The pair parted ways when Ronaldo departed Old Trafford in 2009 to write his name in the history books at Real Madrid. However, the pair remained close even after they parted ways.
