Juventus forward Cristiano Ronaldo admits ‘healthy’ rivalry with Barcelona star Lionel Messi has made him better

Both footballers have won the coveted Ballon d’Or on five occasions and many consider the pair to be two of the greatest players of all time.

Juventus striker Ronaldo spent nine years at Real Madrid before joining the Italian champions in 2018, and Messi recently admitted he believes they have spurred each other on to achieve more individual honours in the game.

The ex-Man United star has echoed the sentiments of the Argentine, telling France Football: “A lot of people said that we fed each other, that being together in Spain made us better.

“That’s certainly true. I felt his presence more in Madrid than in Manchester. It was a healthy rivalry. We were the symbols of our clubs.

“It’s always nice to be spoken of in a flattering way. It’s nice if they say I’ve been the best, a fantastic player.
