Ronaldo does not have star mentality, says Real coach

MADRID: Real Madrid coach Manuel Pellegrini says Portuguese winger Cristiano Ronaldo, who the Spanish giants signed for a record 94 million euros, does not have a star mentality.

"He's as I expected him to be. He is the first to arrive at a training session, he has fully integrated into the squad, he doesn't act as a star," he said on Sunday during his first post-training press conference as Real's new coach.

"He is a very talented but normal player who is devoted to Real Madrid. His image is very different to how he is as a player."
