“Who is that guy?” – Ronaldo Responds to Van der Vaart’s ‘Selfish’ Comment
Cristiano Ronaldo has hit back at his former Real Madrid teammate Rafael van der Vaart after the Dutchman criticized him in a recent interview.
The exchange between the two former footballers came after Van der Vaart labeled Ronaldo as “selfish” during an appearance on talkSPORT.
Ronaldo and Van der Vaart shared a brief spell together at Real Madrid, where the Portuguese star was already becoming a global football sensation.
Although they were teammates for a short period, their relationship has now come into the spotlight following Van der Vaart’s controversial remarks.
In the interview, Van der Vaart acknowledged Ronaldo’s exceptional work ethic but took aim at his mentality, describing him as “selfish.”
The former Tottenham star suggested that Ronaldo was only satisfied when he found the back of the net, implying that his focus on personal achievements sometimes overshadowed the team’s success.
Not one to shy away from a response, Ronaldo took to Instagram, where he posted a blunt four-word comment: “Who is that guy?”
The simple yet pointed remark seemed to dismiss Van der Vaart’s criticism entirely, indicating that Ronaldo had little regard for the opinions of his former teammate.
Former Liverpool player, Jamie Carragher, speaks on Arsenal’s next match and claims that their game against Aston Villa will be challenging and described it as a test for the team to see how well they perform.
“Arsenal have looked the best team in the league by a long way so far this season, but Man City are still only five points behind.
There’s a long way to go and Arsenal will need to keep their heads! It could be tested tomorrow against Aston Villa!!”
Former Manchester United player, Jesse Lingard, has revealed that he has mutually agreed to leave FC Seoul and his contract will end. It is reported that he will leave next week.
It can be noted that the footballer joined in February 2024 and has made 66 appearances since then, scoring 18 goals.
The player shared his experience on social media, saying “My time in South Korea has been unbelievable — the football, the atmosphere, and the passion around this club have been top class.”
“The love, support, and appreciation you have shown towards me over these last two years has been truly amazing. I’ll always be grateful for the opportunity to play for such a massive club.”
Former footballer, Rio Ferdinand compares Arsenal star player, Bukayo Saka, to Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah.
When comparing players, he shared that: “When Saka is on it, he looks unplayable,” however he also stated that even with Salah’s stature, he is strong.
He has got the strength like Mohamed Salah. He is small in frame and size when you look at him, but do you ever see him get pushed off the ball?
“You don’t really see people take the ball off him or put him on his arse. He is a strong little guy.”
