Soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo has expressed his fondness for second term US presidential winner Barack Obama, saying he likes the president 'talks'.

Ronaldo also said that he liked to meet Obama as he is an 'honest person'.

The Real Madrid star is widely seen as one of the two greatest footballers on the planet at present, along with Barcelona rival Lionel Messi , and knows what it takes to win, as he boasts of a trophy cabinet of medals from the Champions League, the English Premier League as well as the Spanish League and Cup.

"I like the way he speaks with people, his communication, I think it's always firm what he says, and I would like to meet him because he's an honest person," Ronaldo told CNN.

Obama was re-elected for a second term at the White House after defeating his Republican rival Mitt Romney in the one of the most closely tied election race, after sweeping votes in major swing states Ohio, Wisconsin, and Iowa. (ANI)
