Rafa Benitez Says Salah Is More Complete Player Than Ronaldo
Former Liverpool and Real Madrid boss Rafa Benitez has shared his take on the Cristiano Ronaldo versus Mohamed Salah debate, saying the Egyptian is the more complete player.
Speaking on the YouTube channel Shoot for Love, Benitez explained that while Ronaldo’s record in front of goal is unmatched, Salah brings more to the game overall. According to him, the Portuguese star stands out as one of the greatest finishers in football history, but Salah offers a wider range of qualities that make him a more rounded attacker.
Salah has scored 323 goals and provided 162 assists in 657 club appearances, showing consistency at the highest level for many years. Ronaldo, meanwhile, remains the all-time top scorer in club football with 796 goals and 257 assists in 1,057 matches.
Benitez summed up his thoughts by saying that although Ronaldo’s finishing ability is legendary, Salah’s overall contribution tilts the balance in his favor when comparing both players.

Football legend Thierry Henry has reacted to Lionel Messi’s emotional response after Argentina lost the 2026 FIFA World Cup final to Spain.
It can be recalled that Spain defeated Argentina to lift the 2026 World Cup trophy. While Spain celebrated their victory, cameras captured Messi in tears after the final whistle.
Henry said Messi’s reaction showed just how much the game still means to him.
“Look at what it means to him. If you ever had any doubt about whether the guy still has any fire in his belly, look at him. Look at what it means.”
He added “You won already. And look at the guy. Look at the passion, desire and the love that he has for his country and how much he puts into it.”
Football legend Rio Ferdinand has shared his prediction ahead of the FIFA World Cup final between Spain and Argentina.
While many have backed different teams to lift the trophy, Ferdinand said some fans have underestimated Argentina’s quality.
He said “I find it difficult to bet against Argentina. They have demonstrated remarkable character, determination, and resilience. I believe people have been somewhat disrespectful by calling them an average team; they are not.”
He continued “I think it is inappropriate and disrespectful. If you are saying that, you clearly do not watch enough football, as they are an excellent team, and in challenging situations, they become even better and stronger. However, I do believe Spain will win the match.”
