Cristiano Ronaldo wouldn't be drawn too much on his preference between English and Spanish football when he sat down for part two of his interview with Unscriptd.

The Portuguese star played for Manchester United between 2003 and 2009 before moving to Real Madrid for a then-world-record fee of £80 million.

And it seems he cannot pick between the two leagues.

"I had the opportunity to play in the Premier League for six years, it's an unbelievable league," he said. "Now I play in La Liga. Both are unbelievable. In my opinion, both are the best in the world."

The 31-year-old was also asked to discuss his taste in music and revealed that he prefers women to call him "Cristiano" and men to call him by his surname ("it's more tough," apparently). But his "closer friends" can call him "Cris."
