They're teammates in one of the best teams in the history of Real Madrid, but the relationship wasn't the best. And he proves it every time he can. Antonio Cassano has become a headache for Cristiano Ronaldo. The former Italian striker is a critic of the Portuguese star and at the same time, he is one of the biggest fans that Lionel Messi has. A few years ago, in dialogue with Sky Sports, Cassano confessed: "I have named my second son Lionel after the best player in the world: Messi. It was difficult to convince the mother but it was non-negotiable". 

Currently, with a Cristiano defeated in the Champions League, Cassano didn't hesitate to liquidate the Portuguese: "Juventus has signed him to win the Champions League, but with him they did worse than before. The Scudetto would have also won it without his arrival. His arrival in a total failure. They're wrong. At Juve, for 120 years, they were only interested in winning, but with Sarri and Pirlo they tried to change their skin. Cristiano does not match anything with Pirlo's ideas".

In the last weekend, Cristiano scored three goals against Cagliari and made a controversial celebration on camera, dedicating the goal to the critics. For many Italian media, Cassano would be among those critics, who in addition to having the Portuguese in their sights, he is a Messi fanatic. "The Cristiano Ronaldo thing is something built, Leo Messi is Michael Jordan, it is Roger Federer, it is Diego Maradona. It is something that we will never see again in our lives," said El Bambino at the time, which today is a pain of head for CR7.

The day he told that he was with 600 or 700 women

"If he hadn't been for that goal against Inter in 1999, now he might be a thief or a sniper, ultimately a criminal". This's one of the many confessions made by the former Madrid player Antonio Cassano in his autobiography 'Lo dice todo', which was put on sale on November 19, 2008 and which had the collaboration of journalist Pierluigi Pardo. Cassano also talks about his personal life: "I have been with 600 or 700 women, about twenty of them from show business".
