DBasia.news – The debate about who is the world’s best player between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi will never run out. According to Javier Tebas, President of LaLiga, Messi is the world’s best player who has played in LaLiga, not Ronaldo.
Lionel Messi became LaLiga’s all-time top scorer. So far, the Argentine has scored 404 goals.
Messi’s achievements continued by winning the top scorer title five times. He also led Barcelona to win LaLiga nine times.
Many achievements have made Javier Tebas choose Lionel Messi as the best player. Moreover, at this time the player still survives Barcelona.
“Lionel Messi is part of Barcelona and will stay there. We consider him an important part of LaLiga Santander and he surpasses normal players,” said Tebas as reported Express.
“He is an icon, the most important player who has passed our league. He is at the top level,” said the president.
The assessment was a severe blow to Cristiano Ronaldo, who spent nine seasons with Real Madrid at LaLiga. Moreover, Messi and Ronaldo are both in the fight for the Ballon d’Or title.
Throughout his career at LaLiga, Cristiano Ronaldo scored 311 goals. Besides, the Portuguese national team player also registered 34 hat-tricks, three ahead of Messi.
Meanwhile, when he returned to Spain with his new club, Juventus, Cristiano Ronaldo actually gets a bitter pill. La Vecchia Signora lost two goals without reply from Atletico Madrid.
Then, Cristiano Ronaldo sparked controversy after mocking Atletico by lifting five fingers. When asked, CR7 explained that he had won five Champions League titles, while Atletico was still nil.
