The Portuguese left back's performance can be seen from the fact that Cristiano Ronaldo picked him as the team-mate he would love playing with at Real Madrid. Speaking to German magazine 11 Freunde, Ronaldo when asked which player from Bayern or Dortmund he would have ar Real, he replied,

“Perhaps my teammate in Portugal, Raphael Guerreiro, I would love playing with him at Real Madrid”.
