Ronaldo, for Messi and Real Madrid

Ronaldo spoke to the La Gazzetta Dello Sport at the Balon d’Or Awards about Lionel Messi and Real Madrid.

When asked if he misses playing with Messi Ronaldo answered: ”No. Before playing in Spain I was in England and before that, I was in Portugal. At the teams, I have played for I have won everything. Messi is still in Spain, and maybe he needs to stay there for long. Life is a challenge and I like doing challenges. If Messi comes to Italy someday I will be really happy to play with him here. He is a beautiful person and a player I wish the best form him.”2225053-46399890-2560-1440

For his teammates Ronaldo said these words : Juventus has the best players that i have played with. In the previous teams that i have played with some players thought that they were better than the other, but here in Juventus we are a team, everyone is humble and our only purpose is to win the games. For Example Mario Mandzukic and Paulo Dybala; you can see them happy even if they didn’t make it into to the starting 11.
