Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo? Dani Alves chose his favorite player

One of the great debates in recent years among law football fans is to know who is the best in the world: Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi. The one who got into such a debate was Dani Alves, Leo's former teammate at Barsa and one of his best friends. On his Instagram account, one of his followers asked him who was better, La Pulga or CR7, taking into account that the 37-year-old winger had the opportunity to play with the two stars of world football.

"Despite the greatness of the two, an image is worth a thousand words", was the response of Dani Alves to the question about the two best players in recent times, with a background image in which he's hugged with La Pulga feasting. However, he indicated that he would have liked to share a team with CR7. In addition, he chose Xavi as the smartest player he played with, Sergio Ramos as the best center-back and assured that "without a doubt" Neymar is the most skilled player of the moment.

The 37-year-old Brazilian acknowledged that his biggest challenge today is getting to play the World Cup in Qatar at the end of next year and revealed that the happiest moment of his career was fulfilling the dream of wearing the São Paulo jersey. "He couldn't fulfill everything except the dream he had as a boy", he argued.

In addition, when asked if he considers himself the best right-back in history, he answered yes, but after Cafu, one of the references he has in sport, along with Pelé and his father. "Pelé transformed the sport we practice, and my father because thanks to him I am a great professional athlete", he closed.
