Messi revealed the biggest regret that involves a shirt and splashes Ronaldo
The argentine star revealed one of his biggest regrets during the beginning of his career.
For many people, he is the best player in history, while others think that he cannot be considered the best of all but without a doubt they place him in the top 3. However, many also wonder about the likes of Lionel Messi and who he is. the best player the Argentine star has seen play.
The Argentine star has no doubt about it and chose Ronaldo Nazario as the best he has seen with his own eyes: "Ronaldo was a phenomenon. Of all the forwards I have seen in my life, he was the best. An impressive player from any aspect", said on an old interview, but that have now gone viral on social media.
Lionel Messi has obtained hundreds of shirts from his rivals and friends in the matches he has played with FC Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain, Inter Miami and the Argentine National Team. And, although it may seem surprising since he is the one who everyone asks for his shirt after a game, there is one that Messi would have liked to ask for and that he never did. One of them is the jersey from Ronaldo Nazario.
"I started paying attention to the shirts or souvenirs when I was older, before I didn't pay attention to that. The fact that I started the collection later made me miss out on exchanging jerseys with retired footballers. I regret not having asked to exchange shirts before with players that I have faced when I was a boy. Like Ronaldo, Roberto Carlos, players I faced and today I say I would have liked to have had that shirt", said some time ago in an interview with the argentine newspaper Olé.
When did Lionel Messi play against Ronaldo Nazario?
Messi faced the brazilian star only once when he was starting his career. It was on November 19, 2005 during the Spanish Classic between FC Barcelona and Real Madrid. That afternoon, the culés beat the ‘Galácticos’ 3-0 at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium with a double from Ronaldinho and a goal from Samuel Eto'o.
