Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, two legendary players from the modern age have fought it out to be regarded as the best player on the planet, if not the greatest player ever.

Both Messi and Ronaldo have numerous records and significant prizes to their names, but Messi currently boasts eight Ballons d'Or on his roll of honour compared to Ronaldo's five, according to Goal.

When asked his opinion on the ongoing debate about the greatest player of all time, Pedri, who worked with Messi at Camp Nou until the Argentine moved to Paris Saint-Germain in 2021, told The Residency: “Messi, without a doubt. But Cristiano is a great player as well.”

As a 21-year-old who is regarded as a future Golden Ball winner, Pedri has made an odd statement when asked what he intends to be doing in ten years, sort of nodding towards his idol, Andres Iniesta, the playmaker: “Playing football, and bald. I have always wanted to go bald.”

Pedri is currently sidelined at Barcelona once more due to injury, and there is "no specific date" set for his latest return. Nevertheless, he will be aiming to support the Blaugranas as they attempt to win another Champions League in 2024.
