'Lionel Messi Is There': Cristiano Ronaldo's Former Teammate Makes Huge 'Transfer' Claim
Fans witnessed an incredible rivalry between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi when the two stalwarts of the game played club football in Spain.
With Cristiano Ronaldo’s future at Al-Nassr in limbo, speculations have been rife over his next possible destination. In a situation like this, the Portuguese legend was recently linked with a probable move to the Major League Soccer (MLS), where Lionel Messi is currently plying his trade for Inter Miami. Ronaldo’s former Manchester United team-mate Wes Brown recently said that the legendary goal scorer should go to America. “Cristiano Ronaldo has to go to America, especially given that Lionel Messi is there as well. I’ve seen Ronaldo play a few times and it’s been a good standard, he is scoring goals and looking so fit for his age, still sprinting at 40. He wants to play for as long as he can and he’s a player who can hand-pick where he wants to play next," Brown told The Sports Daily, as per GOAL.
“He won’t hang his boots up anytime soon and will keep breaking records. He has been to a few places now and I’d love to see him add America to the list. He has been scoring more goals than Messi of late and it would be great to see them go head-to-head again," Wes Brown added.
