Dani Carvajal Avoids Ronaldo vs Messi Debate

Carvajal’s Balanced View on the GOAT Debate

Despite sharing a significant part of his career with Ronaldo, Carvajal maintains a neutral stance in the debate over the greatest football player of all time.

His admiration for Messi is evident, acknowledging Messi’s remarkable achievements, including winning eight Ballon d’Or awards and becoming the most decorated player in men’s football.

What Carvajal Said

Instead, Carvajal has told Daniel Habif: “Messi or Ronaldo? I put them on the same level. I don’t prefer one over the other. They are monsters in every sense of the word, and I could not choose neither this, nor that. I think they are very different. Messi is a player who is able to go back, receive the ball, and create attacks, and then he can participate in the play and create. Cristiano is a monster at scoring goals, attacking the area, and finishing. If they were playing together, they would have been a bomb. And it would have been interesting to see.”

Current Endeavors of Messi and Ronaldo

The possibility of seeing Messi and Ronaldo on the same team seems unlikely now.

Messi has recently joined Inter Miami in the MLS, marking a new chapter in his career.

Meanwhile, Ronaldo’s move to Al-Nassr in 2023 has significantly boosted the profile of the Saudi Pro League.

Their paths, once intertwined in European football, have now diverged as they embark on new adventures in different leagues.
