Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi have been the two biggest stars in the world of football. Both enjoy healthy competition with each other. Fans usually debate which one of the two is better. Now the rivalry between the two is in the end stages and both footballers have left Europe. Ronaldo has joined Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia whereas Messi has joined Inter Miami CF.

Lionel Messi confirmed that he would join Major League Soccer (MLS) as an unrestricted free agent once his current deal with Paris Saint-Germain expires on June 30. The 35-year-old is anticipated to make an immediate contribution to David Beckhams team. Fans, on the other hand, unearthed a previous statement posted by the club about Cristiano Ronaldo.

Tom Brady was in attendance at Old Trafford on March 12, 2022, as Manchester United defeated Tottenham Hotspur 3-2. Cristiano Ronaldo struck a superb hat-trick for his former club Manchester United, ensuring the hosts took all three points. Manchester United shared a TikTok video of Tom Brady meeting Ronaldo. Inter Miami then commented on the post with two goat emojis, implying that the Portuguese captain was the GOAT.

However, the stance of the David Beckham-owned club is likely to change with the arrival of Lionel Messi. Messi is expected to turn the fortunes of the club around and thus has all hope of the fans riding on him. The maestro is expected to make his debut for the club against Cruz Azul on July 21.

Gareth Bale is considered as a modern-day great of the game. He had some interesting comments about the MLS. Gareth was quizzed regarding Messi’s Inter Miami move, to which the Welshman had interesting replies about football in the USA.

“It is a lot more chilled (in MLS). If you lose at Real Madrid, it is like the world has ended. You are crucified, you feel down. You go home and you’re not happy. They accept losing a bit more (in America). There is no consequence. You can’t get relegated over there. When you lose a game you go on to the next one. They accept losing a lot better over there. They know how to lose but they celebrate every win like you have won the championship. He will definitely enjoy it.” said Bale.

Bale played for LAFC in the United States past season. Bale also left one of Europe’s most recognized teams, Real Madrid, to join MLS side LAFC last year. He helped his team win the MLS Cup during his brief stay in Los Angeles. In the final, he scored a thrilling last-minute header to help his team defeat Philadelphia Union.
