Real Madrid coach, Zinedine Zidane, has blasted the club’s fans who booed Cristiano Ronaldo over the weekend.
The Portuguese endured jeering from the home supporters, before going on to score four times as Madrid hammered Celta Vigo 7-1.
Zidane admitted that the fans were frustrated because of the 12-point gap between Los Blancos and Barcelona, but ruled out any possibility of Ronaldo leaving.
Speaking ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League last-16 second-leg match against Roma, he said: “There are fans who want Ronaldo to be sold? Well I don’t and I’m the coach.
“As far as the whistles go, they did it to me too, to everyone.
“It’s not a question of one player in particular, it’s a fanbase that wants more from its players.
“I see a full stadium and that means a lot. The fans are very important, they have always supported us. It is part of football that they are unhappy if things do not go well.”
