Brazil football legend, Ronaldo De Lima, has picked former Real Madrid midfielder, Thomas Gravesen as his worst-ever teammate.
Ronaldo spent five seasons with the LaLiga giants and was a key figure in the club’s Galacticos era.
Gravesen signed for Madrid in a £2.5million move from Everton in January 2005 and went on to make 49 appearances.
The Denmark international played for two seasons alongside Ronaldo.
While Ronaldo has said Gravesen was a “cool guy”, he claimed the former defensive midfielder was “very bad” on the pitch.
In an interview with compatriot Romario, Ronaldo was asked to name the worst player he’d ever played alongside.
He replied: “There are a lot of them. There was one at Real Madrid who was a joke… Gravesen.
“He was a Danish midfielder. He was a cool guy, a good guy. A little while ago he won a $ 50 million poker tournament or something.
“But in football he was very bad, he scored and he beat the hell out of people.”
