Lionel Messi declared greatest footballer as legends like Ronaldo Nazário praise his legacy

Former football greats have lauded Lionel Messi as the sport's greatest player. Ronaldo Nazário, Zinedine Zidane, and Jürgen Klopp all praised his impact, citing his decisive goals and ability to rise to major occasions, including the 2022 World Cup.

In a separate commentary, Ronaldo Nazário criticised Cristiano Ronaldo’s physical condition, saying his body can no longer meet World Cup standards and that age limits his performance, even as the Portuguese star prepares to join Al Nassr and chase 1,000 career goals.
