🚨🗣️ Zlatan Ibrahimović on the Messi vs Ronaldo GOAT debate:
“Every week, every month, every year, somebody asks me the same question.”
🗣️ “‘Zlatan, who is the GOAT? Messi or Ronaldo?’”
🗣️ “Honestly? I get tired of hearing it.”
🗣️ “Not because they aren't great players. They are.”
🗣️ “But because people talk about football as if it is a video game.”
🗣️ “One player scores a goal and suddenly he's the GOAT.”
🗣️ “The other wins a trophy and suddenly the debate is over.”
