When asked who he preferred between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, Romelu Lukaku chose Cristiano Ronaldo over Lionel Messi in an old video. 

Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku, the Belgian combination, were given various questions in the video, with two options to choose from. When asked if he preferred Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi, Lukaku pondered for a long time before choosing the current Manchester United striker. 

Meanwhile, Kevin De Bruyne was eager to support Messi. The video has been resurfaced and may be seen below:

 

Cristiano Ronaldo and Romelu Lukaku have a few similarities. Like the five-time Ballon d'Or winner, the Belgian is regarded as a clinical forward. For two seasons, Lukaku was a member of Manchester United's squad. 

It's also worth noting that Lukaku and Ronaldo played in the same Serie A team for a few of seasons. During the 2020-21 season, the Belgian striker finished second to Ronaldo in the Serie A top goalscorer rankings. 

Lukaku scored 24 goals for Inter Milan, while the Portuguese attacker concluded the competition with 29 goals for Juventus. 

Inter Milan, on the other hand, ended Juventus' Serie A domination by winning their 19th Scudetto.

 

How have Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo fared for their respective new teams? 

Last summer, both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo switched teams. Messi joined PSG on a free transfer, while Ronaldo returned to Manchester United after leaving Juventus. In comparison to their previous seasons, both superstars have had lacklustre seasons. 

Lionel Messi has had a difficult time adjusting to his new surroundings in Paris. In all competitions, the 34-year-old attacker has eight goals and 13 assists for PSG. Only three of those goals, though, have come in Ligue 1. 

PSG fans jeered Messi earlier this year at the Parc des Princes because of his terrible first season in France. Cristiano Ronaldo's value at Manchester United is undeniably greater than Lionel Messi's at PSG. United's leading goalscorer this season is the 37-year-old attacker, who has 21 goals in 34 games. 

Cristiano Ronaldo, on the other hand, is certain to finish his first season back in England without a trophy. Meanwhile, PSG's Lionel Messi is on track to win the Ligue 1 title. With five games left in the season, the Parisian giants are 15 points ahead of Olympique Marseille in second place. 

PSG, on the other hand, struggled in the UEFA Champions League and the Coupe de France. They were eliminated in the Round of 16 stage in both competitions.
