Cristiano Ronaldo may be recognized as one of the greatest players in the history of football, but he is not good enough to be Antony's 'perfect footballer'.
Despite the fact that some think the Ronaldo vs Lionel Messi debate is over, there's no doubt about how well the Al Nassr star has performed throughout his career.
Messi is ahead of him at the Ballon d'Or, but the 38-year-old has five more Ballon d'Ors and he's won the Champions League with each, putting him past the Argentinian in stats there.
You imagine most other players on the planet would want the skills of Real Madrid's all-time top scorer and if they were lucky enough to build a soccer monster similar to the creature of Frankenstein, they'll use something from him.

That is not the case for United star Antnoy, although the Brazilian started his time at Old Trafford playing with the Portuguese star.
When asked to choose players to make up his 'perfect' specimen, the former Ajax player chose Robert Lewandowski's finish above Ronaldo, as you can see in the video below. The Brazilian player naturally chose Kylian Mbappe because of his speed even though he was only the 11th fastest player in the Champions League last season.

With his dribbling ability and flair, the 23-year-old left everyone confused by picking Neymar in first place and Messi in second, making fans think he should have chosen the best way. other.
Luka Modric was chosen for his intelligence, which the 37-year-old clearly hasn't lost despite his advanced age, in terms of football.
Having seen Bruno Fernandes so close this season, it's no surprise that Antony chose his United team-mate for that skill.
Perhaps a bit embarrassing for Harry Maguire, the MU striker did not choose captain for his 'leadership' but chose another man at Old Trafford, Casemiro.
The penalty shootout was supposed to be the most expected when Antony chose Ronaldo but instead he chose Lewandowski is also quite understandable.

Ronaldo will soon find himself surrounded by more familiar faces in Saudi Arabia, with a wave of players from Europe to the Middle East.
He will face former Real Madrid team-mate Karim Benzema and fellow Portuguese Ruben Neves early next season.

United could even sell their five stars to the Saudi Pro League, although Antony is unlikely to be among them.
