Former Colombian national team goalkeeper Rene Higuita believes that the best goalkeepers in the world are Iker Casillas, Petr Cech, and Victor Valdes.

The 46-year-old former footballer became well known to everyone after he stopped a shot in the "scorpion" style.

"Iker Casillas, Petr Cech, and Victor Valdes are the three best goalkeepers in the world, I admire their abilities," Higuita told "Times of India."

The Colombian also briefly commented on Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, but refused to comment on who the best player is.

"They are very technical footballers. One plays for Barcelona and the other for Real Madrid, and I really like these clubs," the former goalkeeper concluded.
