Ronaldo scored 112 goals and made 28 assists in 114 appearances
during Zidane's tenure between January 2016 and the end of the 2017/18 campaign.
The Juventus forward has spoken of his appreciation of the
47-year-old.
He told DAZN: "The confidence that a player needs doesn't
only come from himself but also from the players around him and the coach.
" You need to feel like you are an important part of the
group and Zidane made me feel special."
"He helped me a lot. I already had a lot of respect for him
but working with him made me admire him more.
Zidane is already under pressure following a disappointing
pre-season with Real, which has included a 7-3 defeat to fierce rivals Atletico
Madrid, and a reported high-profile breakdown in relations with star forward
Gareth Bale.
