The English defender and the Portuguese ace spent six years at Old Trafford, playing key roles in Man United's historic run.

Rio Ferdinand has never hidden his friendship with Cristiano Ronaldo, and today, he shared a meeting with the Portuguese ace via Instagram.

The former England defender posted a couple of pics on his feed, one of them with CR7's face away from the camera, and one more showing what he was doing for the entire day.

Ferdinand and CR7 won several trophies while at Manchester United. Since his retirement, the English defender has stated his allegiance to the Portuguese striker, whom he considers the best player in the world.

The contents of the interview are yet to be disclosed, but Ferdinand hinted that it may have something to do with a new pair of boots for the 4-time Ballon D'Or winner.
