Former Portugal national team and Real Madrid defender Luis Figo is not convinced that Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are the best footballers in football history, and added that in the past he even played against players better than them.
The leaders of the attacks of Real Madrid and Barcelona currently have no equals and are the best footballers in the world. Together they have won seven consecutive "Golden Balls".
"If I were a coach, I think I would try to buy Ronaldo and Messi," L. Figo said. "They are amazing footballers."
"Fortunately, I also had the opportunity to play with great footballers. I think they were even a little better than Ronaldo and Messi," said the Portuguese, who has played for the national team alongside C. Ronaldo.
The legendary Portuguese footballer was also asked about the UEFA Champions League, and according to L. Figo, the main candidates to win it are Chelsea, Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Bayern.
