He said:
"When it comes to Ronaldo, we're not talking about a human being. What more can I say about him? For me, they are two players who come from a different planet. They have come from somewhere completely different. They have arrived here for a short time to stir up all the leagues and competitions, taking all the trophies with them and then quit. That's him and Lionel Messi."
Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are heading towards the end of their careers, and without a doubt, have pushed each other to their limits. As for Marko Arnautovic, he is reportedly set to leave Shanghai SIPG and join Bologna this summer.
'Cristiano Ronaldo uses Lionel Messi as fuel for motivation'
Rio Ferdinand recently told Gary Lineker how Cristiano Ronaldo uses the slightest things to push himself to become better than Lionel Messi.
He said on the BBC:
"It's a great example to young players and he uses negativity as fuel. You've [Lineker] said some things like your preference would be [Lionel] Messi out of the two.
"He [Cristiano Ronaldo] will send me a text saying, 'I can't believe he said that, can't believe he's done that,' he just uses anything [as fuel]. You think he's done so much in his life, 'Why do you care about what anyone says about you? You know you're the guy.' It's the competitive nature. That's all it is. And you need that."
