AC Milan and Italy great Paolo Maldini has lauded praise on Real Madrid centre-back Sergio Ramos, labelling the Los Blancos captain as “the best defender in the world” currently.
Maldini knows a thing or two about defending, having spent 25 seasons with the San Siro giants – clocking up over 900 appearances in the process.
Indeed, the cult hero is regarded as one of the greatest-ever stoppers at the back but believes 32-year-old Ramos is up there in the same category given his stellar career at the Bernabeu.
Watch what Maldini had to say in the video below as he attended FIFA’s ‘The Best’ awards in London earlier this week.
