N'Golo Kante picks Lionel Messi over Ronaldo
Kante, now playing for Al Ittihad in the Saudi Pro League, was asked about the two global superstars back in 2016, during his time with Leicester City.
Kante wasted no time, simply saying "Messi' when asked to pick the GOAT.
Who is the GOAT; Ronaldo or Messi?
Both stars will go down as two of football's greatest-ever talents, with both individual and collective awards to show for their incredible careers.
However, Kante and Messi have one thing in common, which is a World Cup triumph.
The ex-Chelsea man helped France to win the trophy in 2018, while Lionel Messi was the best player as Argentina lifted the trophy in Qatar two years ago.
Messi also won the Copa America back in 2021 and helped his country defend the title last week in the United States, giving him an outside chance of winning a record-extending 9th Ballon d'Or.
No matter who wins more or scores more goals, one thing is clear, the debate between Ronaldo and Messi will never truly be over.
