The Brazilian striker made a return to Italy when was offloaded by Capello during the January transfer window and ever since, the goal ace has made no secret of his dislike for the Italian tactician.
Ronaldo went as far as calling Capello a "devil" and likening his stay in Madrid to "hell" after he lost his place in the starting XI to Ruud van Nistelrooy and was dropped to the bench for the first half of the season.
The latest insult came when Ronaldo was asked by Spanish television station Cuatro whether he though Real would win the league this year, Ronaldo said: "I hope Real win the league for the sake of my old team-mates, but not for the coach who doesn't deserve it."
Real currently occupy 3rd pace in La Liga, just five points behind leaders Barcelona and Sevilla.
