Patrice Evra compares Cristiano Ronaldo with Lionel Messi, says ‘If Messi had same work ethics as Cristiano…’

Ronaldo and Messi: Patrice Evra, a former Manchester United defender, described why he prefers Cristiano Ronaldo over PSG’s Lionel Messi. Patrice Evra highly praised his former Manchester United teammate’s work ethic on Rio Ferdinand’s FIVE YouTube channel. He said while Messi is god-gifted, the CR7 had to work for it.

He said, “I want to explain why I say Ronaldo, it’s not because he’s our brother. It’s because I love his work ethic. I feel like Messi, god just gave him talent and said to go play with those kids. Cristiano had to work for it, even if he had the talent, he had to work for it. I think if Messi had the same work ethic as Cristiano, Messi would probably have 15 Ballon d’Ors today. I just love people that work hard and that’s why I pick Cristiano I know after the World Cup they say now the GOAT is Messi or whatever but Ronaldo is a different level. If someone picks Messi I will agree with him but it’s just that we have a different opinions, we just have to be blessed and grateful that we played with those players. There’s no wrong answer.” 

Evra and Ronaldo enjoyed playing three-and-a-half successful seasons as teammates before Ronalodo left Man U. The duo won two Premier League titles and also won the UEFA champions league once. 

Despite having a successful career as a Portuguese attacker, most fans will side with the Paris-Saint-Germany star when it comes to the title GOAT. The Argentine achieved unexpected success at Barcelona for 15 years before moving to the French team. Lionel Messi led Argentina to victory in COPA America in 2021, before their highly awaited win in FIFA Worldcup 2022.

According to the reports, Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe’s wages could serve as a problem due to PSG’s financial problems, the Ligue 1 giants could be the subject of expulsion from the champion’s league if they continue to breach Financial Fair Play regulations.

The UEFA fined the French for breaching FFP regulations for the 2020-22 season. They posted three consecutive seasons of losses of over €30 million and were fined €55 million.

The Les Persians did sign the former Barcelona star on a two-year deal in the 2021-2022 season, making him the highest player in the world, even though they broke the record with a three-year contract for Mbappe, who reportedly earns €50 million per year.
