Cristiano Ronaldo has not lost any of his confidence. In an interview with Piers Morgan, the first part of which will air on Tuesday, the Portuguese star spoke about his eternal rivalry with Lionel Messi.
Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo, who is the best? The eternal debate will never be settled, but both players have their opinions. At 40 years old, CR7 asserts: he does not consider himself inferior to the Argentine. “I disagree. I don’t want to be humble,” he says when Morgan relays Wayne Rooney’s comments, who believes Messi is better.
The interview is billed as “the most personal” of his career: his relationship with Georgina Rodriguez, the tragic death of Diogo Jota, his meeting with Donald Trump, his fortune, his future… it covers everything.
Last round Messi/CR7 at the World Cup
Under contract with Al-Nassr until 2027, Ronaldo continues to pile up the stats: 9 goals and 2 assists in 10 matches this season. His club dominates the Saudi Pro League, even though CR7 has yet to win the local title since his arrival in 2023.
This season is crucial: Ronaldo will turn 41 in February and still aims for the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico — perhaps his last opportunity to lift the trophy. A World Cup where he could, once again, face Messi, who has extended his contract with Inter Miami until 2028. The rivalry may be settled by then, if one of them wins the World Cup…
