Former Manchester United coach Rene Meulensteen has revealed how he turned Cristiano Ronaldo into a goalscoring machine.
WHAT HAPPENED?
Cristiano Ronaldo is widely regarded as one of the greatest goalscorers in the history of the game having scored 853 career goals to date. But apparently, he was not as good in front of goal as he is now at the start of his career. His transformation from a winger to a goal machine happened during his first stint at Manchester United under Sir Alex Ferguson's tutelage and the coaching of his assistant Rene Meulensteen. The Dutch coach, who spent 13 years at Manchester United and is currently serving as an assistant coach in the Australian national team, revealed how he changed the Portuguese's mindset on the training ground which in turn transformed him into a prolific goalscorer.
