The former Ghanaian footballer finally took his courage in both hands and told the truth between who was better between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
Kevin-Prince Boateng couldn’t keep quiet any longer! When he did his short stint at FC Barcelona, the Ghanaian midfielder assured anyone who would listen that Lionel Messi is indeed the best player of his generation. But, it was out of politeness. Now that he can express himself freely, he provides a completely different opinion.
“To play, I had to say that Messi is the best”
During a Podcast Five show, the ex-AC Milan player bowed to Cristiano Ronaldo and placed him above La Pulga. “When people asked me who the best player in the world was, I always had to answer Messi. This is one of my biggest lies because I always like to tell the truth but I had to lie about this one to play,” she blurted.
“Messi asked me how difficult it was to score in Italy, because Cristiano Ronaldo was playing there at the time. I told him it was very difficult, and yet Ronaldo scored in every match for 3 years! “, added the former Ghana international.
As a reminder, Messi played for more than fifteen years in La Liga before moving to France. Ronaldo shone in La Liga, but also in the Premier League and Serie A.
