Tennis superstar Andy Murray has picked a side in the never-ending debate between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have dominated football for over 15 years.
Despite their careers seemingly winding down, the two football icons continue to dominate football conversations everywhere.
Lionel Messi was recently awarded his 8th Ballon d'Or, putting him 3 clear of closest challenger and eternal rival Cristiano Ronaldo.
As the GOAT debate rages on, Tennis icon and multiple Grand Slam winner Andy Murray has chosen Lionel Messi as the greatest of all time, even suggesting the Argentine could be the best athlete ever.
Murray picks Messi over Ronaldo
After Messi won the World Cup with Argentina, Murray took to his X account to write,
"Is Messi the best athlete of all time? Forget just football. What a man."
Messi, who now stars for Inter Miami, will be looking to bow out on a high when he leads Argentina to the Copa America next year.
