In an interview with The Sun, Prince William was asked about his ideal footballer's celebration, to which he responded, "Well, the most iconic I guess is Cristiano Ronaldo's."

However, when pitted against Messi in a hypothetical head-to-head matchup, the prince gave a nod to the Argentine legend.

"Gotta go Messi, just," Prince William said, showing his admiration for the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner.

Messi, who currently plays for Inter Miami, has been absent from the team's last three matches but returned for their Champions Cup match against Cavalier in Jamaica, where he scored.

Ronaldo, on the other hand, will lead his Al-Nassr team against Al-Kholood in the Saudi Pro League on Friday.
