Dani Carvajal Avoids Ronaldo vs Messi Debate

Dani Carvajal finds it difficult to choose between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo as the greatest of all time, but confesses that having them on the same team “would have been bomb.”

Ronaldo’s Remarkable Journey at Real Madrid (2013-2018)

During his tenure at Real Madrid from 2013 to 2018, Dani Carvajal witnessed Cristiano Ronaldo’s extraordinary achievements.

Ronaldo not only became Real Madrid’s leading scorer but also enhanced his Ballon d’Or collection.

Throughout this period, Carvajal also experienced numerous encounters with Lionel Messi, Barcelona’s iconic player.

Carvajal’s Balanced View on the GOAT Debate

Despite sharing a significant part of his career with Ronaldo, Carvajal maintains a neutral stance in the debate over the greatest football player of all time.

His admiration for Messi is evident, acknowledging Messi’s remarkable achievements, including winning eight Ballon d’Or awards and becoming the most decorated player in men’s football.

What Carvajal Said

Instead, Carvajal has told Daniel Habif: “Messi or Ronaldo? I put them on the same level. I don’t prefer one over the other. They are monsters in every sense of the word, and I could not choose neither this, nor that. I think they are very different. Messi is a player who is able to go back, receive the ball, and create attacks, and then he can participate in the play and create. Cristiano is a monster at scoring goals, attacking the area, and finishing. If they were playing together, they would have been a bomb. And it would have been interesting to see.”
