Rio Ferdinand savagely trolled Manchester City's fanbase during the build-up to their Champions League clash against Real Madrid.

The ex-Manchester United defender poked fun at City fans as he brutally claimed that there aren't many around.

Speaking on BT Sport, he said: "When you see to City fans, well, there aren't that many around."

"Rio having little dig at the city fans even joe hart hasn't a reply to it," one social media user wrote.

A second tweeted: "Ferdinand taking a cheap shot at City fans."
