Former French striker Christophe Dugarry has invited Cristiano Ronaldo to take on a new challenge in Ligue 1 in France.

During the Globe Soccer Awards ceremony last Friday in Dubai, Cristiano Ronaldo did not fail to tackle Ligue 1. The Portuguese striker, who plays in Saudi Arabia, declared that the Saudi Pro League was as competitive, if not better than the French championship. “ The Saudi League is not worse than Ligue 1. The Saudi Pro League is more competitive than Ligue 1, I can say that after a year there. We are already better than the French championship now “, affirmed the five-time Ballon d’Or.

“Come and enjoy us in Ligue 1”

These comments were strongly criticized by players in the French football landscape. Lille coach Paulo Fonseca said: “There are things that don’t deserve me to waste my time answering. These statements are part of it. I think intelligent people will understand why he made this statement. »

Christophe Dugarry, former French international who played for Bordeaux and Olympique de Marseille, also reacted to the latest provocation from the former glory of Real Madrid. The 98 world champion invited Ronaldo to come and discover Ligue 1. “I suggested he come to Ligue 1 for a short year,” he said. Cristiano I love you, I adore you, thank you for everything you have done. Come and enjoy us in Ligue 1. After your friend Messi and Neymar you will see that it is not going to be easy for you either. »

It remains to be seen whether CR7 will respond favorably to Duga’s invitation. If this is the case, he will have the opportunity to do better than his eternal rival Lionel Messi, author of 22 goals and 31 assists in Ligue 1 in 58 appearances for Paris Saint-Germain.
