DBasia.news – Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi have dominated football in the 2010s. Many stars have tried to match their journey, but always lead to defeat. French manager, Arsene Wenger said there are several names that are ready to become substitutes for the two megastars.
Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have dominated football for more than a decade. Both players took turns to achieve the title of best player.
However, Messi and Ronaldo are no longer young. Ronaldo, who is now defending Juventus is 35 yearsold, while Messi who is loyal to Barcelona is 32 years old.
According to Arsene Wenger, there are several players who have the potential to become the best players to replace Messi and Ronaldo. One of them is Kylian Mbappe.
“Lionel Messi? We will never see a player like him. He is really creative in difficult situations like anything,” Wenger said as talkSPORT reported.
“Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are nearing the end of their careers,” said the manager, who had been linked with AC Milan.
“Now, an important role is on the shoulders of the next generation. That generation could be French. For now, maybe Kylian Mbappe is at the forefront. Neymar, too. But no one knows for sure.”
In addition, Wenger also praised the English players. The Three Lions have a number of young talents such as Jadon Sancho, Marcus Rashford, Trent Alexander-Arnold, to Callum Hudson-Odoi.
“However, I think England also has a good chance with the young players they have at the moment. They have shown it at the World Cup with Gareth Southgate. I hope they can become challengers at the European Cup,” added Wenger.
