The striker played under the Dane during their time together at PSV Eindhoven back in the nineties, and has credited the new Spurs man as being the biggest influence on his career.
Indeed, Arnesen’s appointment at White Hart Lane has once more resulted in the Real Madrid star admitting his own interest in moving to the Premiership.
´´Frank going to Tottenham makes me think of England again and it would be ideal for me to work under him,” said Ronaldo. ´He is the one that discovered me and has been more like a father to me since.
´´Now he is going to work in England, I can only say that it re-ignites my interest in The Premiership. I have often said I want to play in England before the end of my career and that remains the case.”
