Rafael Nadal weighs in on Cristiano Ronaldo vs Lionel Messi debate
The rivalry between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo continues to captivate the sporting world. This time, an unexpected voice entered the fray, as tennis legend Rafael Nadal shared his thoughts on the matter.
Asked by fans on vacation in Greece, as per AlbicelesteTalk on Twitter, he responded:
“Messi is better, but I’m a Madrid fan."
In January, the football landscape witnessed a seismic shift when Ronaldo departed European football to join Al-Nassr after parting ways with Manchester United. The Guardian recently reported that, in his recent post-match reflections, Ronaldo expressed a sense of finality, stating he would not return to Europe.
Meanwhile, Lionel Messi was presented with an enticing offer from the Middle East, which would have reignited the storied rivalry he shared with Ronaldo. However, the Argentine maestro declined the opportunity in favor of an offer from Inter Miami.
