Sami Khedira Picks Ronaldo Over Messi as Football’s Greatest
Former Real Madrid and Germany midfielder Sami Khedira has weighed in on the age-old debate between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, picking Ronaldo as the greatest footballer of all time.
Khedira, who played alongside Ronaldo for seven years at Real Madrid and Juventus, made it clear that his loyalty lies with the Portuguese star.
For years, football fans, players, and analysts have been divided over who truly deserves the GOAT title. While Ronaldo is known for his incredible athleticism and goal-scoring ability, Messi’s technical brilliance and playmaking skills have earned him just as much admiration.
However, having witnessed Ronaldo’s work ethic and impact firsthand in both Spain and Italy, Khedira has no doubts about his choice.
“For me, it’s Cristiano,” Khedira said in an interview with talkSPORT. “That’s not to disrespect Messi because what he has achieved and is still doing, especially in the U.S., is incredible.
But I know Cristiano personally, I played with him for years, and I’ve seen his mentality up close. So I’m 100 per cent team Ronaldo, but with full respect for Messi.”
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.”
