Ronaldo spoke in a recent interview with Edu Aguirre, the journalist from ‘El Chiringuito’.

Asked if he thinks he is the best footballer ever, Ronaldo said he is a complete player.

The Portugal captain, however, admitted that some people may prefer the likes of Lionel Messi, Pele and Diego Maradona.

“I’m the most complete player EVER. To say that Cristiano isn’t complete is a lie,” Ronaldo said.

“You may prefer Pele, Messi, Maradona, I understand and respect that.”

“I do everything in football. I play well with my head, I take good free kicks, I have a left foot, a right foot, I’m strong, I go out.

“To say that Cristiano isn’t complete is a lie, I’m the most complete,” he added.

Ronaldo has won five Ballon d’Or awards in his career so far.

The 39-years-old has won several trophies including the Champions League, Premier League, LaLiga and Serie A.

Ronaldo has played for Real Madrid, Juventus and Manchester United in the past.
