Ronaldo and Messi are the stars of the football industry, and the emotions of fans are attached to these 2 players. However, it is also true that they are past their prime and are also getting old. Ronaldo is 38 years old, while Messi is 36 years old now. This can also be proved by their recent transfers to the Saudi league and MLS recently leaving European football. In addition to that, Messi was also seen struggling while playing for PSG.
