Nottingham Forest defender Ola Aina recently revealed Cristiano Ronaldo as the toughest opponent he has faced in his career.

In a quick-fire question-and-answer session on Instagram, the Nigerian full-back named the five-time Ballon D'Or winner when asked about his most challenging opponent.

Aina also mentioned former Chelsea star Eden Hazard as the best player he has played alongside. "I wouldn't say the best, but I will probably put maybe Eden Hazard," he said.

Aina encountered Cristiano Ronaldo during his time at Torino when the Portuguese star was representing Juventus.

He also had the opportunity to play alongside Eden Hazard during his stint at Chelsea.
