Lionel Messi did not appreciate that his teammate in the selection, Alejandro Garnacho, displayed his admiration for Cristiano Ronaldo. He showed it to her in his own way.
Being a supporter of Cristiano Ronaldo, even if you are an Argentinian international and play for Manchester United, is a lack of taste for Lionel Messi. Alejandro Garnacho learned this the hard way. This is what Rio Ferdinand said in an anecdote revealed on his podcast Vibe with Five.
The former England international, now a consultant, spoke of a Garnacho who was able to stand out last Sunday, with a recovery and a spectacular goal during United’s victory at Everton (0-3). And about the young Argentinian, Ferdinand had a good one to tell. “ Do you know what I like about him? It’s because he doesn’t give a damn. Garnacho told me that Messi stopped following him (on Instagram), simply because he made no secret of his preference for Ronaldo.“
“La Pulga” does not appreciate
And the former Mancunian defender continued: “ He comes and he doesn’t care. ‘I’m a Ronaldo fan.’ Who is the GOAT? Ronaldo. (Even) when he is with the Argentina team. » A penchant for the five-time Portuguese Ballon d’Or which therefore did not at all please a Lionel Messi who was visibly upset at not winning all the votes in his own ranks.
To this day, Alejandroi Garnocho is still not followed by the former Paris Saint-Germain on social networks, even if he continues to follow Lionel Messi… And Cristiano Ronaldo.
