Ahead of the 2022 World Cup final between France and Argentina, PSG star, Abdou Diallo has revealed that his teammate, Kylian Mbappe believes that Cristiano Ronaldo is well clear of Lionel Messi in the age-old debate between the pair.
In the last few days, most football debates have centered around Ronaldo and Messi as this would be their last World Cup tournament.
The duo have been battling it out for honors and trophies over the past two decades but a World Cup win for Messi could finally end the debate.
Wading into the debate, Diallo, who is currently on loan at RB Leipzig, said Mbappe thinks Ronaldo is the greatest of his generation rather than Messi.
He told Daily Mail;
“Cristiano Ronaldo is literally everything to Kylian Mbappe. If you mention Lionel Messi against Cristiano, Mbappe will debate with you for at least an hour. For him, Cristiano is untouchable.”
While Mbappe and Messi will remain teammates till the end of the season, Inter Miami has already expressed interest in the services of the Argentine. Mbappe has also been linked to Real Madrid.
