Recently, Footboom newspaper quoted the shares of striker Cristiano Ronaldo in a conversation at the beginning of the year with journalist Edu Aguirre on La Sexta TV channel (Spain).
During the interview, Portugal's number 1 striker recalled some memorable moments in his career, especially the time he raced with striker Lionel Messi when both played in the Spanish national championship (La Liga).
"I prefer the thrill of scoring at Camp Nou to the Bernabeu. We lived in a period of intense rivalry. It was an iconic rivalry between Real Madrid and Barca, Ronaldo and Messi, Ramos and Pique. It was beautiful.
I have a great relationship with Messi. I once interpreted for him at an awards ceremony (the 2015 Ballon d'Or award ceremony - PV). Messi always treated me well," Ronaldo recounted.
When asked about the possibility of returning to Real Madrid, Ronaldo answered with an open mind. The striker born in 1985 said: "I really respect President Florentino Perez. He is a serious person, treats me well and we have achieved many successes together.
I still talk to him from time to time. I left a legacy, a beautiful mark at Real Madrid. It is not excluded that, when my career ends, I will come back and do something special."
Besides, Ronaldo also affirmed that he had a great career. He considered himself the most talented and excellent player in the history of world football.
"I am the best and most complete player in history. I am good at heading, good at free kicks, fast, strong and jump high. While you can like Messi, Pele or Maradona, I see myself as the most complete and best player in history.
I am also the top scorer of all time. The numbers prove it. Even though I am not left-footed, I am still in the top 10 players who have scored the most goals with their left foot," Ronaldo emphasized.
Portugal's number 1 striker also affirmed that he is a competitive person and this has helped him never give up throughout his playing career.
The 39-year-old striker admitted that after achieving the greatest achievements in history, he no longer cares much about criticism or criticism.
