Star of the Madrid squad since his arrival in 2009, Cristiano Ronaldo continues to surprise with his performances despite his 33 years. A level for which Raphaël Varane is admiring.
While currently playing his ninth season at Real Madrid, Cristiano Ronaldo continues to impress. The Portuguese has become the best scorer and passer in the history of the Champions League in the Merengue jersey and has managed to win four Ballon d’Or in Spain, now totaling five, tied with Lionel Messi.
Performances that do not prevent criticism of the Portuguese during his diet cuts, and which cause comparisons between the two giants of their generation. Asked about this, Raphael Varane, his teammate at Real Madrid has returned to the level of Portuguese.
« Every year, it surpasses itself »
« You always wonder if he’s at the same level as Messi … Some even say he’s finished. When my friends ask me the question, I tell them: « calm down ». Every day, he impresses me, every year he surpasses himself, he has already won everything but he still wonders how to do even better. He gets angry at training, gets angry when he does not score … It’s his greatest strength. With all that he has done and all that he continues to do, I do not understand how he can be criticized. We can not criticize him. Commented the French international on the Cadena SER antenna.
