Lionel Messi's presentation on Sunday night for the United States as a new Inter Miami player marked the end of an era. After almost 20 years competing in Europe, Leo left the old continent for the first time. Which also puts an end to the hegemony that he had with Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Portuguese left European lands this same year. CR7 went to Saudi Arabia for an impressive amount of money and completely walked away from the most competitive leagues in the world. What surprised the Portuguese was the reaction he had with Messi's arrival at Inter Miami and above all he gave his position on MLS.

When asked if he would like to play in Major League Soccer like the Argentine star, CR7 was blunt: "No, because in Arabia the championship is much better than in the United States." In addition, he assured that “I paved the way for the Saudi league. And now all the players are coming here”.

Cristiano also spoke of his return to Europe

"I am 100 percent sure that I will not return to any European club. The door is completely closed," ruled out Ronaldo, who also gave his opinion on current events in European football. “European football has lost a lot of quality. The only one with value is the Premier League. They are far ahead of all the other leagues”, concluded the Al-Nassr figure.
