Cristiano Ronaldo: “I am the best player in history, no debate”

As Cristiano Ronaldo nears his 40th birthday, he gave a bold interview declaring himself the best player in history, citing his nearly 1,000 career goals, five Champions League titles, Euro 2016, and five Ballon d’Ors.

Ronaldo emphasized his versatility, claiming to be the most complete player ever, excelling in speed, strength, and scoring with both feet and his head.

He also criticized some of his former coaches, without naming names, and dismissed the idea of being less complete than other legends like Pele, Messi, or Maradona.

Ronaldo reflected on his rivalry with Messi, claiming the Saudi Pro League is stronger than MLS, and revealed he could have joined Barcelona before moving to Manchester United. At 39, Ronaldo remains determined to solidify his place as the greatest of all time.
